 ### Meaning of Reference Hints
 
 During the transport of software artifacts referenced from external artifact repositories like
 OCI registries, they might be stored as  blobs along with the component version (access method
-`localBlob`. If those  component versions are transported again into a repository landscape they
+`localBlob`). If those  component versions are transported again into a repository landscape they
 might be uploaded again to external repositories.
 
 To provide useful identities for storing those artifacts hints in external repositories, again,
 the original identity of the external artifact must be stored along with the local blob.
 
 ### Current Solution
 
-The access method origibally used to refernce the exterbal artfact provides a reference hint,
+The access method originally used to reference the external artifact provides a reference hint,

 a formal hint, by providing access to a set of string attributes. There are three predefined
 attributes:
+
 - `type` the formal type of the hint (may be empty to cover old component versions)
   The types are defined like the resource types. The following types are defined for now:

     format
 - `reference`: the standard attribute to hold a string representation for the identity.
 - `implicit`: Value `true` indicated an implicit hint (as used today) provided by an accessmethods.

 To support any kind of hint for any scenario, the artifact metadata (resources and sources)
 is extended to store explicit hints, which will be part of the normalized form.

 holding the hint attributes (including the hint type).

+
+#### Inputs
+
+Inputs may provide explicit or implicit hints, now. All file based inputs now allow to specify implicit hints as used before.
+The implicit hints (if not conflicting with explicit hints) are used to be stored in `localBlob`
+access methods. The explicit hints are used to default the explicit artifact hints.
+
+Hints used in a component version must be unique. This check is extended to consider implicit
+and explicit hints provided by inputs, access methods and artifact hints.
