Re: Notice of Pilot Activity in CVE Auto WG - Supporting NVD's Participation

If "refsource" and "name" are now required fields could you update the
schema to ensure they are present.

> To support NVD's participation in the git pilot, MITRE proposes to add one or two attributes to reference objects in the CVE JSON files in the cvelist repo, which will allow NIST to regenerate the CVE List from the repo rather than having to rely on an older download file (allitems.xml). Specifically, we propose to add the following attributes :
