This is how we use the labels:
| Label | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Guidance | We reckon this issue only affects informative parts of GEMINI |
| Breaking | We expect the solution to this issue to mean that previously valid instances will no longer be valid |
| documentation | We reckon this issue only affects documentation around GEMINI, not the actual elements |
| enhancement | We see this issue as a request for something extra |
| discussion | Probably a status - intended to mean 'the suggested solution requires more discussion' |
| Elements | This issue refers to one or more specific GEMINI elements |
| bug | it looks like somethings definitely broken; we're advising people to do something that is invalid |
| help wanted | whoever raised this issue is asking for help, not (yet) specifically saying something is wrong |
| Encoding | This issue primarily refers to the (XML) encoding of a GEMINI record |
| invalid | something that's wrong but probably not causing people to create invalid records |
| samples | This issue relates to the XML sample files (in the GEMINI-schematron repository) |
Note: overlaps between "Guidance" and "documentation", "bug" and "invalid"
Note: we have not firmly defined which parts of GEMINI are normative & which are informative. Roughly, the normative parts are:
- for each element: the GEMINI id, name, definition, "purpose and meaning", obligation, occurence, data type, and domain
- the general Encoding Guidance page: sections 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 The rest are informative
