Notes

iPres

Final poster has been submitted, all ready. Our session is Wednesday at 1.30pm.

Finalizing XSD for version 2

  • Some type declarations could be simplified, i.e. split into separate definitions.
  • We need new page(s) on loc.gov, probably mostly linking to the resources on Github. Karen will prepare the documents to indicate changes in.
  • Defining the URL for the new schema.
  • Assuming that https://www.loc.gov/standards/mets/mets.xsd will remain

Primer

  • PR for splitting up chapters is available. Still a bit of duplication between the sections.
  • It shouldn't be a comprehensive documentation of all the elements. We can merge remaining aspects like techMD, dmdSec and amdSec into respective schema-perspective documents. But then also split them into specific topics rather than strictly following the schema structure.
  • Will need to coherently update the example, once the structure of the documentation is in place.

Profiles

  • We should ensure the schema is documented properly, a practical example could follow in 2025.

Board membership

  • Bertrand to step down from the Board
  • Discussion after iPres to review board memberships and decide whether a call to fill positions should be done.
  • We should setup a proper application procedure.
  • Version 2 might increase visibilty and interest, implementations and migration options would be things to cover.

Next meeting on October 9
