Issue 8711: Attributes in a subtype (snp-ftf) Source: Japan Biological Informatics Consortium (Mr. Martin Senger, martin.senger@gmail.com) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: As I was reading the spec, I found out that attributes in a subtype are bold and the inherited ones are not. Would be nice if these conventions are spelled out somewhere in a 'how to read the spec section'. Discussion: It will probably be also solved by writing the new software conversion tool, and by re-generating the PSM part of the specification. But I would not rely on fonts indicating some meaning - they may be unintentionally changed by formatting the document. The inheritance is, however, already indicated by text like "defined at ..." that accompanies every attribute. Proposed solution: Reject the issue Resolution: Revised Text: Actions taken: April 26, 2005: received issue November 1, 2005: closed issue Discussion: Discussion: It will probably be also solved by writing the new software conversion tool, and by re-generating the PSM part of the specification.
