Compatibility with OCFL #2

Ideally, this digital preservation export plugin would be interoperable with OCFL. See a discussion of this here: https://github.com/OCFL/Use-Cases/issues/29

How interoperable are you thinking here? Directly compatible or readily transformable via a script of some description?

photomedia commented 5 years ago

I was thinking directly compatible, ideally, but readily transformable would be fine as well. However, OCFL is still a work in progress, with no stable version of the spec out yet, so this will be an ongoing issue for the future. In the meantime, I don't think we should wait for the OCFL spec to be completed before moving on with this plugin. We just need to keep an eye on what they are working on, with the aim of transformability/interoperability eventually, if the spec gains wider adoption.
