GISIN page edits Thanks for your attention to the GISIN wiki page However RE your removal of note that this should NOT be construed as finalized and should ONLY be used in the context of working with other GISIN partners in a development context this was added because at least one of the GISIN participants were worried that folks might begin attempting to use the draft GISIN protocol for development In fact they asked me yes I know it s a wiki they could have done it themselves to change the wording on the page to make SURE no one began investing time in what is now a moving target Is it really that bad to have this clarification there Draft may mean different things to different people If it makes you feel any better which I m guessing it won t because I know you have a particular reason for your edit that part won t stay there forever eventually the protocol will be released as a live perhaps versioned product so this disclaimer will be unnecessary However at this point I fear that the person who asked me to make the change who is basically the technical lead on the GISIN project will become perhaps justifiably annoyed if this point is not made clear to his satisfaction He actually requested that the GISIN Wikipedia entry be DELETED if this weren t made clear So any way you could see fit to re include that text or something similar that would serve the same purpose P S As I think about it in truth the onus should really be on the maintainer of the linked sites to ensure that anyone that got to that URL would knowin terms that the site author wants folks to knowthat it should NOT be construed as finalized and should ONLY be used in the context of working with other GISIN partners in a development context hmmm I think I ll pass this along to the concerned party Well anyway thanks for listening
