which linkPropertyLookupTable to use #13

LinkPropertyLookupTable.csv or LinkPropertyLookupTable2.csv. Which does geolinks use?

cc @rsignell-usgs

geolinks 0.0.1 uses https://github.com/OSGeo/Cat-Interop/blob/master/LinkPropertyLookupTable2.csv initiallly. We should really clean up the csv and formalize / mint it somehow, at which point we can update geolinks to peg properly to the correct csv.

I think that LinkPropertyLookupTable.csv should be deprecated.

@smrazgs how about:

1./ tag the current/as-is state of this repository as 0.1.0 2./ master branch becomes only LinkPropertyLookupTable.csv and a README

This way we keep everything from the past in a branch and have a clean, discernable pointer to the master table.

Comments?

@tomkralidis , I think this is a great idea.

We're facing the problem of creating an easily accessible, stable resource that people can confidently use for lookups and reference on the one hand AND a agile community based resource that can adapt to new technology. Typically I would think of the Tag as the stable version that people can point to like an XML schema, and the master having the 'bleeding edge' version that may be updated at any time. From that point of view, it should be clear which file in the Tag is the stable, static version to use. Can we change the name of LinkPropertyLookupTable.csv to LinkPropertyLookupTable1.csv or LinkPropertyLookupTable_deprecated.csv before tagging?

tomkralidis commented 9 years ago

I've tagged 0.1.0 (in the sprit of anything before 1.0.0 is not stable per se) and now master is a clean slate with LinkPropertyLookupTable2.csv renamed to LinkPropertyLookupTable.csv.

Marking this as closed. We should open another ticket on release options.
