Title: RE: [emergency] Naming
Conventions


Hi Len,


Please see my reply to Eliot's post.


Ciao,
Rex


A somewhat tangential subject will be appropriateness
for the medium.
I reviewed the JusticeXML Data Dictionary and Schema
yesterday.  It
is a stunningly complete work for public safety
records management
systems, but will be unworkable for
bandwidth-constrained environments
such as RF-enabled field units.   Some
thought will have to be given
to the practicality of these names given the medium in
which they are
used.  Verboseness does matter.  XSLT adds
overhead but will be the
preferred solution in some cases, even, closed systems
(same
vendor for CAD, RMS and AFR).   While this
is not technically
difficult, the language used in the specifications as
reflected in the
RFPs must account for
medium-appropriateness.
