Notes and Presentations

Enhanced Content Models

• Presentation by Asger

Asger presented an overview of the Enhanced Content Model work, and we discussed which parts made sense to fold into the core Fedora distribution. The discussion focused primarily on the extension mechanism and schema + relationship validation.

The group agreed that the following would be good to fold into the core distribution:

• An extension Extension mechanism for DS_COMPOSITE_MODEL, inspired by ECM's
• Use of this extension mechanism to:
  • Include XSD references
  • Include OWL Lite references
• Ability The ability to validate XSD and OWL on-demand (after ingest)
• The ability to clone objects via Fedora's APIs

The following need further discussion:

• Ability to validate XSD and OWL as prereq. to "Active" state transition
• Kai indicated interest in defining DSL(s) for validationThe ability to clone objects via Fedora's APIs

To drive this work forward, we identified:
Lead: Asger,
Contrib: Kai
