[CAP] CAP Implementation Analogies

[Ham, Gary A]

Label - mmm... Very interesting

CAP is designed to be used independently, and should be.

But where labeled less vanilla varieties are defined, the OASIS EDXL
Distribution Element offers a standard labeling technique that could be
quite helpful.

Just a thought,

This a very good point.  I'll include the fact that CAP has a list of
ingredients and the containers and toppings should also put their
ingredients on a "label".
