Users will be defining a DFDL schema and its associated new encodings together. It should not matter what case they use here or in the DFDL schema. We should standardize this to upper-case or whatever we want internally to make the lookups work efficiently, which I think means we upcase the name here, and the user name supplied to the dfdl:encoding property gets upcased before being used for lookup. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
