Greetings, I'm emailing you on behalf of the Association of Moving Image Archivists (AMIA) PBCore Advisory Subcommittee to tell you about an event we are coordinating to take place in Portland, Oregon before Code4Lib -- to develop an RDF ontology for PBCore. We will be meeting an an airbnb about 4 miles from the conference hotel on February 7-8, 2015.
PBCore is a metadata schema for audiovisual materials and was developed about 10 years ago by public broadcasters. Since then, the XML schema has been revised multiple times and adopted by a number of archives and archivists in the moving image archival community. The PBCore Advisory Subcommittee recently held a how-to and why-to webinar, which you can watch here: https://vimeo.com/aapb/pbcore. We welcome anyone else who wants to join us and take part in the PBCore RDF ontology hackathon. If you're interested, email me off list and I'll give you more info. Best, Casey Casey E.
