The CloudEvents specification defines a set of metadata attributes than can be used when tranforming a generic event into a CloudEvent. The list of attributes specified in that document represent the minimal set that the specification authors deemed most likely to be used in a majority of situations.
This document defines some addition attributes that, while not as commonly used as the ones specified in the CloudEvents specification, could still benefit from being formally specified in the hopes of providing some degree of interoperabilty. This also allows for attributes to be defined in an experimental manner and tested prior to being considered for inclusion in the CloudEvents specification.
Implementations of the CloudEvents specification are not mandated to limit their use of extension attributes to just the ones specified in this document. The attributes defined in this document have no official standing and might be changed, or removed, at any time.
None at this time.
