• [ ] 3.1.3 Translator "The mdTranslator converts an input metadata record, written to a known JSON standard, such as the ADIwg JSON standard." This sentence was confusing to me when I read it the first few times. I think it might be clearer if this sentence were combined with the one that follows it, like this:

"The mdTranslator can be used to convert a well-formatted input record from one compliant standard (such as the ADIwg JSON standard) to another metadata standard (such as the ISO 19115-2 standard, in XML). Currently the mdTranslator supports only the ADIwgJSON to ISO XML conversion, but additional translation capabilities may be added in the future."

I know the location of these may not be fixed yet... consider a placeholder?
