Re: please comment on global identifiers proposal

[Thomas Tam <thomas.tam@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ronald,

I have a few comments in section 4:
?
1: Should the name "sourcing organization" be "sourcing 
organization/GOLE"? eg. STARLIGHT is a name of the change point.
2: I like the ":" separator between first and second parts. It's really 
doing its work as separator.
3:  In the bullet four, it sounds like we are setting a rule for the 
sourcing organization/GOLE of how to setup their internal naming. I  
believe our idea is using whatever the sourcing organization has internally.
