Syndibase Namespaces

Namespaces can be used in tags to create sections. How does one define a namespace?

The punctuation should be permissible in a URL. Thus, I’m thinking along the lines of…

  • Skill.Nursing.
  • Skill.Carpentry.

This is naive, I know. I like it. The problem becomes when you are using Syndibase for a system and you want a controlled vocabulary. You do not want to miss out on a person because they’ve typed Skill.Nuring.

  1. If people are selecting from a controlled vocabulary, are they allowed to type in additional names in the namespace?
  2. If they edit an entry with a controlled vocabulary, how are the items outside of the namespace displayed?
  3. Who decides what is inside our outside of the controlled vocabulary?

The other common uses of tagging are as follows.

  • For:UserName
