Need a versioning system #68

Open climbfuji opened 2 months ago

climbfuji commented 2 months ago

It was brought up not only recently that we need a versioning system for the CCPP standard names.

My immediate reaction is that this can be done in form of coding the version in the XML file and creating corresponding git tags.

@climbfuji Thanks for opening this issue. Including a version number in the XML was my first thought as well. This does bring up the question of how we would go about incrementing version numbers. Though more importantly, there is no current method of "enforcing" standard names compliance (as evidenced by the fact that the ccpp-physics repository is far out of compliance with the current set of names), so any versioning would have to be considered in that context as well. Probably worth a discussion item at the next meeting.

I'm not sure how often you meet, or if this was discussed, but I'm curious if there's any update on this issue.
