This came up on lpi-webdev where we are working on a web-interface to
deal with test objectives and items; but it is relevant to examdev too:

%< cut >%

3) Before using an item-submission system, we must settle on unique
ID's for objectives and test items.

* In lpi-updates and lpi-ac I tried starting a discussion on the best way
to expand this for L2.  My current preference:
- L1 objectives have an ID <exam>.<area>.<objective> .  For L1, <exam> is
1 or 2, and has no relation anymore to the actual 101 or 102 exams.  So I
propose to change this to a <level> indicator: all objectives currently
labeled 2.a.o would become 1.a.o.  This is possible since the <area>
numbers are unique too.  So for L2, objectives would start with 2.  Also
note that moreover, I also proposed unique <area> numbers for L2, because
the area's that Kara & lpi-examdev defined after the L2 JAS, do not map
well to the areas defined for L1.

* Test items apparently have been numbered sequentially as they came
in.  I believe we have numbers into the 800's.  I propose to start
numbering L2 items at 2001, so we have room for new test items for L1.

Alan, can you please confirm the above?
