User Story:

The current draft profile resolver in develop does not handle oscal-version correctly in metadata, emitting a "TODO" string.

However, the specification for the desired behavior is soft: see #1272.

We need to clarify the spec, then update the tool.

Goals:

Could be broken into the following work items:

• A workable spec for the desired behavior. (Spec-Conformant Profile Resolution Tools Should Use Patch OSCAL Version, not Only Minor #1272)
• Create a unit test to check for appropriate behavior (@wendellpiez) Implement SemVer-based comparison on oscal-version in XSLT Profile Resolver #1440
• Conformance to the processing specification in the XSLT and Java profile resolvers.
  • Implemented in XSLT profile resolver (@galtm) Implement SemVer-based comparison on oscal-version in XSLT Profile Resolver #1440
  • Implemented in Java profile resolver in https://github.com/usnistgov/liboscal-java (@david-waltermire-nist)

Dependencies:
