This seems consistent with other uses of ‘namespaced’ tags. Michael From: Larry Golding (Comcast) <

sarif@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: RE: run.stableId Sounds good. I think we should allow multiple levels, so either of these is ok – it’s up to the engineering system to decide the appropriate level of bucketing: Nightly security run/x86 debug Nightly security run/x86/debug Larry From: Michael Fanning <

sarif@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: RE: run.stableId I think we should add it, for precisely the reason you cite, bucketing at the stable id level. You might do this in order to organize all tool breaks for both the x86 and amd64 instances of a tool run.

sarif@lists.oasis-open.org > Subject: run.stableId As I understand it, the goal is to bucket together runs of the same type, so that a result management system can: Open a SARIF log file, Find run.stableId , Find the most recent run of the same type , and Copy run.id from the earlier run into run.baselineId of the current run. That doesn’t require namespaced tags. It works whether run.stableId contains "Nightly security tools run/x64 release optimized" or whether it contains "Nightly security tools run x64 release optimized" . The only reason you’d need namespacing is if there’s some other scenario that needs to bucket together every "Nightly security tools run" , regardless of the build configuration. Larry
