update metadata publishing requirement #179

Closed tomkralidis closed 1 week ago

tomkralidis commented 1 month ago

Using the example of origin/a/wis2/ca-eccc-msc/metadata, Requirement 1C states:

Metadata SHALL be published to at least the level of the notification type (metadata).

This means that discovery metadata can be published to origin/a/wis2/ca-eccc-msc/metadata, origin/a/wis2/ca-eccc-msc/metadata/core, etc. It was found that some Global Services were treating this requirement differently (some expecting a full Earth system discipline subtopic under .../metadata, for example). Other Global Services were deleting everything witha subtopic below .../metadata.

To eliminate ambiguity, the below update is proposed:

Metadata SHALL be published to the exact level of the notification type (metadata).

This means that discovery metadata can ONLY be published to origin/a/wis2/ca-eccc-msc/metadata

Would this be a change that is introduced in FT2025-1?

tomkralidis commented 1 month ago

Yes, if that is the earliest possibility.

amilan17 commented 1 week ago

@tomkralidis this was not introduced in FT2024-2.

tomkralidis commented 1 week ago

OK, then if this is too late, 2025-1.
