• feat: non-schema valiodation score-go#150, next steps:
  • Integrate a new score-go version as-is for generic/spec validations (resources missing, placeholders, etc.) in score-compose|k8s
    • For example, let's integrate this new function after this one https://github.com/score-spec/score-compose/blob/main/internal/command/generate.go#L158. Adding a --strict on|off with off as default and eventually deprecate it? --> @mathieu-benoit to file a good first issue for the community coming.
  • Optionally, adding per implementation specific validation in score-compose|k8s

Open discussions:

• "v1" of the spec to anticipate?
  • Auto-migration
  • Strict validation?
  • CRD compliant?
  • Extensions (GPU need, beyond containers, etc.)?
  • --> @chris-stephenson will start a Google Doc about this for now
  • --> and let's validate at KubeCon with the community (especially aligning with the TAG App DevX initiative below
