Principle 4.1 in its current wording conflicts with principle 1.1 #706

Closed stephenmackey closed 3 months ago

stephenmackey commented 1 year ago

Principle 1.1 states that "it must be possible to include any data or metadata in an information package regardless of its type or format" but principle 4.1 states that "metadata in the information package must conform to a standard". The text for principle 4.1 introduces the concept of "crucial metadata". Does 4.1 only apply to "crucial metadata"? In which case the principle needs to be more specific and in order for validation not to be problematic, acceptable "crucial metadata" standards need to be defined. Is "crucial metadata" the only metadata allowed in the /metadata folder?

When it was written principle 4.1 was for the crucial metadata but of course there can be other metadata.

This will be put on the agenda for the DILCIS Board.

Hej Karin

I have been analysing the existing CITS and I do see consistency in the placement of standardised vs non-standardised metadata, so will make appropriate changes in eHealth1 and note for 3D. One question; if there is non-standardised metadata, say techmd placed in a sub-folder in rep/data, should we refer to it in the dmdSec of the mets file?

Other than this I would also like to discuss Archival collections, this is likely a requirement for 3D Product Models (i.e. product assembly structures) and I am envisaging a master metadata only AIP which holds a product structure.

Also, my analysis of the current CITS has given me a good checklist of possible extension points and constraints for a new CITS. Is this useful for the Guideline?

Again also, I have identified anomalies and improvement points for CITS as well as for eHealth1, e,g, folder naming in eHealth2. Should I just raise these as issues in GitHub?

Thanks

Stephen

The issue have been discussed on todays DILCIS Board meeting and we agreed upon editing the wording so its a well-formed format instead. An update of the wording will be made and a PR will be made for the DILCIS Board to review later on.

The suggestion is:

Board members acknowledgment of the issue: Tick the box in front of you name to indicate that you have looked at the suggestion.

Voting (Decision making will be carried out on the basis of majority voting by all eligible members of the Board. In the case of a tied vote, decisions will be made at the discretion of the Chair)

Tick the box in front of you name to say yes to the suggestion.
