[glue-wg] Call for VOTE: OGF GLUE2 Enumerations procedures and best practices

[Florido Paganelli]

Thanks Andre for the comments!

I'll try to fix the trivial ones by the beginning of the meeting, but I
can't promise.

About some of them, here's my own comments:

I actually don't like RECOMMENDED there, but as a matter of fact we have
names with no organization prefix. My choice would be to keep old names,
but for new names that have no organization prefix we should force
"org.ogf.glue." as an organization prefix to keep consistency.
I think Stephen was against it, AFAIR. Stephen?

See previous comment. It also says MANDATORY for NEW names. Maybe I
should stress the NEW?

for example a domain name is bought by somebody else who is alien to the
initial project. Or simply the domain name does not exist.

I just received a request today with domain names that exist but are
totally unrelated to the described services.

Listing all the issues would not make sense. Is it a bit clearer now? Do
you have better suggestions for rephrasing it?

It is correct.

I think that line should be changed -- in fact it could be any of the
other values as well.

I think the best is to remove that line and just say that the group
should assign one of the values defined in Section 4.2 -- without a
value the string is still floating in a DRAFT state.

Sounds good for me!

True, will add them.
