> This JIRA describes a proposal for standard types for common metadata entities and relationships.  For example, glossaries, database definitions, rules, policies, ...
> The value of having standard definitions for metadata is to enable type safe APIs and business level UIs plus be able to exchange metadata between different instances of metadata repositories.
> The implementation of these common definitions can be divided into 2 groups:
>  - standard system attributes for all entities and relationships
>  - standard types for commonly used metadata
> Adaptation and flexibility are key in metadata environments so these common definitions must be extensible - and we still need to support the ad hoc definition of new types in Atlas.
