Increase Nested Schema Limit #182

Open felixse opened 2 months ago

felixse commented 2 months ago

The current DTDL v3 specification imposes a maximum depth of 5 levels for nested complex schemas. However, in certain scenarios, this limit might be too restrictive. For more complex digital twin models, especially those involving intricate hierarchies or deeply nested structures, a higher limit would be beneficial.

Proposal: I suggest revising the DTDL v3 specification to allow for a deeper nesting level, perhaps up to 10 levels. This change would enhance the flexibility and expressiveness of dtdl models.

DTDL v3 can no longer be changed, but we are considering various limit increases for DTDL v4.
