This looks mostly good to me.

But, regarding the capitalized 'URI' in this proposal - I see that we have noted it differently on e.g. viewUrl here: https://github.com/cdevents/spec/blob/main/schemas/repositorycreated.json#L74 We also have an old (forgotten?) action to capitalize words such as URI from https://hackmd.io/2FRGlw9fTMmKN1OQUVvguA?view#Jan-29-2024. What is the best to do?

  • Update this PR to instead define schemaUri?
  • Update all existing occurrences of Uri/Url to URI/URL?
  • Keep this PR as-is, but create a dedicated issue to deal with the inconsistencies separately?

The issue was initially brought up in Dec 2023 https://github.com/cdevents/community/blob/main/working-group-notes-2023.md#dec-4-2023. There are different opinions about this on the internet, but I don't think there is a definite answer out there. One point that I found relatively compelling is that two acronyms next to each other become indistinguishable if their case is all upper.

I will update this PR to use Uri instead of URI to be consistent with viewUrl - we can then open a separate issue if anyone feels strongly that this should be all uppercase instead
