RE: [uddi-spec] Typos?

Title: Message

I 
can't find any keys with upper case characters - in particular, the 
isReplacedBy tModel has a key "uddi:uddi.org:identifier:isreplacedby". Maybe you 
mean the tModel names?

  Typos?

  
There were in the 3.0.1 version - things like isReplacedBy, and so 
  forth. Using all lower case means that the word boundaries are no longer 
  distinguished: derivedfrom, entitykeyvalues and isreplacedby - making 
  them harder to read.

  
 

  
The canonicalisation algorithm already converts them to lowercase - why 
  would we need to do it to the keys? 

  
 

  
I'm not in favour of anything that makes them harder to read, and that's 
  the effect of rendering them in all lower case. I wouldn't mind so much 
  if we reinstated the word boundaries using, for example, underscores; 
  something like: derived_from, entity_key_values, and is_replaced_by, 
  would be OK, but that changes the derived V2 keys. The capitalisation, on the 
  other hand, doesn't change the derived keys, which is one of the reasons I 
  suggested it.

  
 

  
Still, I'd prefer that we had consistency. Having some in mixed case, and 
  some in all lowercase, is bad.

I 
    believe that we decided to convert all keys to lower case characters, 
    probably because of canonicalization. Are there any upper case characters 
    left in UDDI keys?

I just happened to notice that the UDDI v3 keys for:

      
 

      
  
      uddi:uddi.org:categorization:derivedfrom

      
 

      
and

      
 

      
  
      uddi:uddi.org:categorization:entitykeyvalues

      
 

      
are all lower-case, 
      which is inconsistent with the other canonical tModel keys. Should they 
      really be:

      
 

      

      
  
      uddi:uddi.org:categorization:derivedFrom

      
 

      
and

      
 

      
  
      uddi:uddi.org:categorization:entityKeyValues

      
 

      
?

      
 

      
 

      
 

      
While I'm at it, there's a more serious question: 

      
 

      
  uddi:uddi.org:categorization:validatedBy

      
 

      
should probably be:

      
 

      
  uddi:uddi.org:identifier:validatedBy

      
 

      
to be consistent with 

      
 

      
  uddi:uddi.org:identifier:isReplacedBy

      
 

      
But I suspect we won't be too keen on making that change because it 
      breaks things. Changing the case of derivedFrom and entityKeyValues 
      shouldn't break things because case isn't significant in comparing UDDI 
      keys - it won't even change the derived V2 keys, because they must be 
      mapped to lowercase before being digested.

      
 

      
Thoughts?
