Comment (by jonathan):
Dear Roy
Thanks for the text.
* What is the proposed number of this new section?
* In the email list, I suggest that `organisms_from_biological_taxon`
would be a better phrase than `biological_taxon` in the standard names.
* Since there is only one bullet, I think it would be better not to have a
list. If another kind of identifier is allowed later, the text can be
modified to introduce a list. At the moment, I would suggest
The taxon auxiliary coordinate variables are string-valued. The plain-
language name of the taxon may be contained in a variable with
`standard_name` of `biological_taxon_name`. A Life Science Identifier may
be contained in a variable with `standard_name` of
`biological_taxon_lsid`. This is a URN ..."
* I'm not clear whether one or both of these must be present. We should
clarify this.
* The example doesn't appear to be in correct CDL - at least, not the
dialect we use in other examples, which have only one statement per line,
and every line ends with `;`.
Best wishes
Jonathan
