# The scienting specifications

These chapters are the normative text of `spec` 0.1.
Schemas, SQL, the JSON-LD context, the registries, the vectors and the fixtures are normative too, and the chapters say which.
Where a chapter and a vector disagree, the disagreement is a bug in this repository; report it.
