Nigel Jones commented on ATLAS-1410:
------------------------------------

Thanks David
 * 6- Ok so a term belongs in a glossary, but can be categorized by one in 
another . I understand this from an object perspective but trying to think of 
an example as to why that is needed? I guess I'm not clear on the meaning of 
having multiple glossaries that are interlinked
 * ok to defer internationalization.. though as well as display names 
relationships like homonyms could be affected since they are sound/dialect as 
well as country/language specific (this is somewhat peripheral for most I agree)
 * 8- Are you saying that additional attribute values can be stored with the 
classification object? I'm thinking here of the example tag based policies 
covered at section 8.2 of 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/RANGER/Tag+Based+Policies where 
"EXPIRES_ON" is referred to
 * ranger tagsync - yes I think we have what's needed. See the referenced ATLAS 
Jira I opened on a new interface to support the new glossary (including 
flattening the structure down to simple tags). An example of the JSON that ends 
up being sent to the ranger server (after extracting from atlas... and we'll 
use a new API for this... and then going through tagsync) is 
https://github.com/apache/ranger/blob/master/tagsync/src/main/resources/etc/ranger/data/tags.json

> For the parent child relationships with glossary categories and terms we
