#322 - Textual Convention Names (Prefix)

hi

<co-editor>
I'm not sure if consensus is fully formed yet, but I wanted to test a view
that it seems to be leaning  in the direction of creating a separate MIB
within this ID to house to textual conventions who's prefix we have not yet
determined? Is that were people are or is more discussion required?

I think the term 'Entity' is too limiting if we agree we are going for a
more generic set of TCs. It occurs to be that we use the term 'resource' in
the Alarm MIB when we introduced the concept of a 'ResourceId' as well as
within the description clauses of the TCs in this MIB. Would a prefix of
'ResourceState' work?
