Discussion: Tile Doctype

[oed]

Discussion for CIP-8.

[simonovic86]

Looks great! Questions/suggestions:

• The unique property should include a random number that ensures that there is no other document that is exactly the same.
  Do we need to restrict it to numbers only?
• Should we consider introducing a property next with embedded content and metadata instead of having separate properties nextContent and nextMetadata?

A few questions/comments/thoughts:

• Should tile be capitalized or no? I think it can be capitalized everywhere except when written as code (tile) and referenced by name in the header of a new document.
• This isn't a Core CIP, it's just an RFC since specific doctypes are not part of the core protocol.
• Same as Janko re: content and metadata.

Updated to reflect your comments @simonovic86. Also updated #37

Thanks for making all of those edits @michaelsena 🙏

@oed Should the implementations section link directly to the ceramic-doctype-tile package in the js-ceramic repo?

Good point @michaelsena I'm hesitant to link that though since we talked about changing the name of the package so the link might break. Adding some additional context instead.
