Subject: [ubl-ndrsc] New rule for property term

Dear all
we agreed that we need a new naming rule for property term.
See an excerpt from the minutes below. I think we should try to formulate 
something today. As I have not bee on these calls I am a little cold as far as 
understanding goes.

Thanks
Mavis


      We agreed that we need a new rule for how to name the property
      term when its contents are a series of like items.  We agreed that
      the ordered/unordered distinction is not particularly important,
      so we discarded the option of using the word "Set" at all.  Our
      understanding is that multiple qualifiers are going to be allowed
      under the new CCTS situation.

      Straw poll:

      property qualifier property term   comments (preferred, acceptable)
      ListOf             LineItem        The term is false in this case
      ListOf             LineItems       Qualifier stuff too complicated
                         ListOfLineItem  p=1 a=0
                         ListOfLineItems p=0 a=2
                         LineItemList    p=5 a=2 We have a winner!
                         LineItems       p=0 a=4
                         LineItemsList   p=0 a=0

      We discussed whether LineItemList should use "List" as the term and
      "LineItem" (or whatever) as the qualifier, but decided that a
      "naked list" as a object class's property is just too vague a
      notion.

      Some examples:
      Order.LineItemList.Details
      Item.SubstituteItemIdentifierList.Details
      Item.PhysicalAttributeList.Details
