Description

TOSCA allows template designers to augment entities defined in types. However, these augmentation mechanisms are not clearly spelled out in the specification. In addition, there are inconsistencies in how different types of entities can be augmented. This document intends to more formally define augmentation functionality and suggest ways to eliminate inconsistencies.
