Inconsistent data types on "otherATTRIBUTENAME" attributes #468

Closed rockivist closed 9 years ago

rockivist commented 9 years ago

During my TL attribute review I noticed that the various "otherATTRIBUTENAME" attributes have inconsistent data types. They are as follows:

otherdaotype - none otherphysdescstructuredtype - none otherdsctype - NMTOKEN otherrelationtype - string otherlevel - NMTOKEN

@tcatapano I think this merits a change to the schema to bring them into alignment. I'm thinking token is the best option here. What do you think?

I'm tagging @kshepher on this too so that we remember to update the TL when the change is in.

rockivist commented 9 years ago

For the record I have updated the TL to reflect how it currently stands.

tcatapano commented 9 years ago

@rockivist I agree that token is probably the way to go. I'm having a hard time coming up for a reasonable argument for permitting the extra whitespace allowed by string and normalizedString.

rockivist commented 9 years ago

@tcatapano OK. Implement it when you can.

tcatapano commented 9 years ago

Implemented. Closed.
