Typographic note
Changes to existing documents/specifications are highlighted in yellow.
Editing notes for the spec documents are highlighted in cyan.
In drafts only: Text highlighted in magenta needs further discussion
Description of the change: (free-text)
Enable an Action in the Hop History to be qualified with further information related to the Action.
Rationale for the change:
The <action> element currently supports the following children:
- <name>
- <hierarchyInfo>
There is a need for further qualification of <action>; this is already supported in other places in the NAR data model (such as <itemClass>) by using {QualRelPropType}, which supports:
- <name>
- <hierarchyInfo>
- <related>
