@azaroth42 Note:
"scope":{
"@context":"http://www.harvard.edu/catch/oa.json",
"@type":"catch:Viewport",
"value":"xywh=-872,0,5406,4489"
}
but the context url doesn't resolve, and this one https://github.com/danielcebrian/catch/blob/master/data/fixtures/annotations.json doesn't have viewport.
@aeschylus I thought we agreed that the annotations would be transferred in the OA context, not the IIIF context? e.g. as per http://www.openannotation.org/spec/core/publishing.html#Serialization
(for exactly this reason)
Hm. I have clearly not understood the implications/details of this. The spec says they may be transferred in any context capable of expressing the graph, but I'm happy to transform it. The scope is another matter. Is the problem that the @context doesn't resolve to something that can help transform the @type? If I remember the archaeology of the catch:Viewport, this was a way for us to get the target region into catch with a custom field, though it seems cloogey now, and is obviously incorrect.
The "scope" field was a custom invention for representing what was being called "bounds" at the time. This was a description of the appropriate zoom framing rectangle from which to view the target annotation region. Should we represent this a different way?
