1) Discussion of project phases / staging

  • as currenly laid out - proposal as written - passing through QDC before moving to DC Terms: 

...

  • Proposed phased schemas
  • straight to DC Terms in 5.0, assuming time for full vetting, guidance from DC experts, feedback, documentation, more tool building

 

2) Discussion on what to include in 4.0 – given project phase discussion what makes sense?

  • Bram's proposed addition of dcterms schema to the default install of DSpace

...

 

...

  • (creating an xml file for dspace/config/registries and a small entry in build.xml so the schema gets registered during the installation of DSpace

  • )

...

in the context of the DCAT work on metadata, we thought it would be a useful first step if DSpace 4 would include DCTerms out of the box, without enforcing its use just yet.

  • , without enforcing it as a default yet.

    • By having the schema

    • available, developers and members of the community can start experimenting changing their input forms, OAI crosswalks

    • – gradually adopting schema.

  • Bram's questions: Does this look appropriate? These scope notes tend to talk about "resources" a lot, while I don't know exactly if "resources" is a term frequently used in DSpace. (usually we say items & bitstreams, so maybe some of these "resource" wording can be changed into "item"?)

...

  • Questions from Ivan: 
    • How

...

    • does this PR fit into the stages of metadata schema upgrade as proposed by DCAT?
    • What I mean is does this do all that DCAT proposed for 4.0 (for example, I notice this doesn't add the proposed "local" schema)? And what work is planned for 5.0? (6.0?)

...

    • Next steps / what's still possible? Can code still be merged?
  • Dimitrios XSL transformation - 
    • provides exhaustive map of the DSpace AP elements to dcterms (a la the old qdc.properties).
      • additional elements are now exported
      • language tags are now exported
      • map everything under the dcterms namespace (rather than mixing dc with dcterms. See also [1])
      • Provide additional LOM mappings to dcterms elements (in case LOM metadata exist)
      • assign types to non-literal values
      • You can check it out at [2]. We are using this XSLT as the basis for populating the DSpace ontology of our Semantic Search plugin.

3) Next Steps

 

  • what work needs to be done for 4.0?
  • what work is next before setting up review groups?

2) Discussion of project phasing

  • proposal as written - passing through QDC before moving to DC Terms
  • straight to DC Terms 

Certainly to be discussed tomorrow, but I think with Richard's mapper and a standard DCTerms schema in place in 4.0, a whole year of ramp up to 5.0 should be enough to start taking care of a bigger shift towards DCTerms adoption. E.g. something like we have envisioned as the DSpace 6 situation in

What could we get into 4.0? pull request by Oct 7, all work doesn't need to be finished but some kind of code needs to be in

  • Richard tool and prelimary mapping - need to test 
  • should we add DC terms as an extra registry, but would have no OAI done for it
  • should we admin schema
  • --> not enough time, should really have some documentation to accompany/describe 

Next steps - review groups - recruit specific people to get involved

1) feedback on all mappings

  • dc terms mapping - need DC experts
  • update dc
  • admin - need dev expertise
  • local

2) feedback on project staging

  •
