Please see the document titled CVE Encoding Specification for Mission Need for a complete description of the encoding as well as list of all components. This schema and its components, as well as other parts of the CES, may be overridden for localized implementations. Permission to use, copy, modify and distribute this Schema and the other parts of the CES for any purpose is hereby granted in perpetuity. Please reference the preceding two paragraphs in all copies or variations. The developers make no representation about the suitability of the schema or CES for any purpose. It is provided "as is" without expressed or implied warranty. If you modify this Schema in any way, label your schema as a variant of MN.CES. Please direct all questions, bug reports, and suggestions for changes to the points of contact identified in the document referenced above. ## Implementation Notes MN does not have a root node.
