Possible typo in IRI of "foot (international)"

Closed this issue · 3 comments

The last component of the IRI includes an uppercase "I" (foot-International) which was instead lowercase in OM 1.8 (foot-international).

Is this intentional?

Hi Andrea,
Thanks for your attention! :)
The switch from lowercase to uppercase was due to the switch to CamelCase, when we moved from OM 1.8 to 2.0.

Thanks a lot, @HajoRijgersberg .

I raised this issue as it leads to backward incompatibility problems, when moving from the use of OM 1.8 to OM 2 by simply replacing the URI prefix. But as this is a design choice and affects also other entries, it needs to be addressed differently at the data level.

Correct, Andrea. That's why we moved to a new main number at the time, i.e. 2, rather than 1.9.
Thanks again! :)
