 Rich et al - I m supportive of this change provided the proposed text to explain the template concept vs executable is updated to describe the use of this new property.

  I assume this property would be required (?) and therefore we should decide what the default value (false) would indicate. I suggest that the default value should be the likely majority playbook class/category.

  So if most playbooks will be templates then is_executable would be a good name and default to false.

  If most playbooks would be executable then is_template might be better to name the property and that way the default value of false would work nicely.

Hi All,



On the working call yesterday there was a discussion about section 1.3 of the CACAO working document.  Some of the important points:



  The difference between an executable playbook and a playbook template is mostly subjective.  There are suggestions to the text to help clarify this.
  There is no difference between an executable playbook and a playbook template in terms of their properties
  The term paybook class is confusing, since it is specified using the type property of a playbook.



A suggested proposal is to remove the concept of playbook classes, and replace it by a new Boolean property, maybe called  is_executable , to differentiate
  between executable playbooks and playbook templates.
