Re: Changing BPs in data vocabulary section

Hi Bernadette,

Thanks, it makes things much clearer. I've tried to react a bit on all issues.
But I'm swamped with work, I can't do more for the moment. It would be great if others could contribute to the discussion!

Cheers,

Antoine

When it's finished I'm gonna send a message explaining the updates and asking feedback. I can tell you that some changes were made based on discussions that we had during the F2F. However, this is not the "final version" that you should review.

I'm ready to reckon the editors should feel free to change if they think there's a reason, but this change has left me wondering, what was the intention behind ;-)

Even more drastic, BP titles have been re-written: "Re-use vocabularies" became "Use shared vocabularies" and "Use standardized terms" is now "Use code lists".
>              The former change is quite minor, even though I liked that the previous version had "reuse" in the first position (it's always better to re-use a vocabulary than to do nothing; even if the vocabulary is not shared across a very wide community). The latter change is more drastic. I miss "standardized" at the front the BP. As far as I can remember (I didn't create that BP) this was the key point. It was not about using code lists for the sake of using code lists: code lists could be idiosyncratic too. And some 'lists' targeted by this BP are not codes, they come as natural-language terms/labels.
