I agree with Philip that cfu should be spelled out. I was also going to make

Dear Roy
I think it would be fine and preferable to use someone else's controlled
vocabulary so long as it has an appropriate format and content and/or we
can define rules for using it in CF.

Hi all -
Species taxonomies are not like chemical vocabularies, in that terms for
organisms change over time. There are some big projects involved in
maintaining these taxonomies, and we probably don't want to commit
to launching a parallel effort.
The ubio project has a decent description of

CF should prepare for the day when it needs to interoperate with multiple
authorities, e.g., 2 different species vocabularies. It will not be possible
for one vocabulary to serve all the scientific needs. We are on the right
track here, let's see if we can solve the
Hi.
This sounds like a good plan. I think there should be an attribute with a
specific name to carry the taxonomic details. It probably will occur in the
long name as well, but I don't like the idea of making the long name the
official repository for that information. It's not my arena, so
Hi folks. I don't know if you received what I sent early about IOOS
Biological Data services termnilogy and Darwin Core standards.
If you want to create your own vocab go ahead. we will keep talking to our
self. I think there is now an opportunity to figure out how to talk between

Yup. If the dimension of the physical quantity is number per volume,

Dear All,
I see Pandora's Box opening before us. I have been down the road of setting up
my equivalent to Standard Names (the BODC Parameter Usage Vocabulary) with
concepts that include specification of the biological entity, which is why I
have a vocabulary with getting on for 30,000

I couldn't agree more. The NIST also agrees. See sections 7.4 and 7.5 of
