A proposal for a collections lexicons

Lexicon Community

Hi! I’ve put together a proposal for a set of lexicons around user-defined, heterogeneous collections that includes an explainer and a first pass at proposed schemas. This is mostly to seed a conversation, nothing feels that solidified yet.

Thanks for writing this up! Sharing a few notes and questions here:

  1. I’d like to recommend including a concept of intent: is the collection for music, web bookmarks, research, etc? Is provenance meant to help here?
  2. List ordering is probably a thing that needs standardization on its own. Keeping a second list of each item id’s order feels inefficient and subject to drift (a client adds an item in the middle of a collection and doesn’t update each other items’ order).
