Issue 4403: Identify precise CWM definition to which interchange doc. conforms (cwm-rtf) Source: Unisys (Dr. Doug Tolbert, dtolbert408(at)gmail.com) Nature: Enhancement Severity: Significant Summary: Provide in the body of a CWM interchange document, a means for identifying the precise CWM definition to which the interchange document conforms. Something similar to the way the XML documents identify the URI of the XML definition they conform to would do nicely. Such a mechanism in effect creates a name space within which the contents of the CWM interchange document can be evaluated. Useful side effects of having such a namespace include: (1) the definition of CWM extension packages without the present need that they be accompanied by the CWM definition itself, (2) a framework in which Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) can be defined for each CWM object. Several requests for CWM UUIDs have already been received informally.
