Indeed, that is the way I had it until we changed it after a discussion on IRC if you remember :D Now, read section "4.1.2 Categories" in Core. In order to allow the template Category to relate to a base type Category this section must be changed. Doing so however may (depending on how it is redefined) remove the distinction between a Category defining a sub-type of Kind and a Category used to assign tags to Kind _instances_. regards, Ralf On Thu, 07 Oct 2010 00:49:42 +0200, Edmonds, AndrewX <andrewx.edmonds@intel.com> wrote:
Yes it MUST be related otherwise you have no indication of what Resource the template refers to.

Found another issue while updating the wiki page.
The page currently says a Resource template MUST be related to the Category defining the Resource type. This is currently not allowed by Core. Only Categories defining a sub-type of Resource/Link/Action are allowed to be related (directly or indirectly) to the base type Categories.
The reason for this is that without the restriction it is not possible to distinguish a sub-type (taxonomy) Category from any random tag (folksonomy) Category.

Hey again, I've added a description of OS templates and from input from the WG people (incl Gary; thanks) a description of how we might do Resource Templates. It can be found here [1] and as ever comments etc are eagerly needed :-)
