Actually, Ed, this would not only make for a good blog post (please, so
it doesn't get lost in email space), but I would love to see a
discussion of what kind of revision control would work:

1) for libraries (git is gawdawful nerdy)
2) for linked data

Speaking of revision control, does any have or know of a sizable dataset of bibliographic metadata that includes change history? For example, I know that some ILSs can retain previous versions of bibliographic records as they get edited.

Such a dataset would be useful in figuring out good ways to calculate differences between versions of a record, and perhaps more to the point, express those in a way that's more useful to maintainers of the metadata.

Regards,

Galen
