Dear All, We close now the CRM Correlation Test Project (http://cidoc.ics.forth.gr/testproject.html). It has brought very valuable results, and has verified both, the CRM approach and the specific contents of the CRM and its latest extensions as an excellent solution to the interoperability of data and metadata of museums and beyond.
Results are presented on the sites: http://cidoc.ics.forth.gr/testproject_results.html http://cidoc.ics.forth.gr/crm_mappings.html http://cidoc.ics.forth.gr/data_transformations.html http://cidoc.ics.forth.gr/gnm_data_type_definitions.html (XML files must be viewed with a suitable browser, e.g. Microsoft Internet Explorer. The automatic invocation of Iexplorer by Netscape leads normally to an error, as it copies the file and not the associated XSL to a temporary location) We shall further update this site, as more details about results may still come to our knowledge and to correct any errors we encounter. (We apologize in advance for minor inconsistencies that may still exist between DTD's, XSL files and the referred versions of the CRM.) If you are aware of any other use of the CRM not mentioned there, please do not hesitate to contact us, it will be published on the same site. Please do not hesitate to contact us for any problems you detect in the results, be it inconsistencies, spelling errors, interpretational problems. The mailing list cidoc-test will be closed now. The mail archive will remain accessible on the site. If you are interested in staying in contact with the CIDOC Documentation Standards work, please subscribe to either cidoc-docustrd (Documentation Standards Working Group) or crm-sig (CIDOC-CRM Special Interest Group). For details please see http://cidoc.ics.forth.gr. Our warmest thanks to all those people that have supported this work. We apologize that not all contributors are mentioned on these pages. We also apologize for cross-posting this message. I hope to see you all in Barcelona, Martin -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Martin Doerr | Vox:+30(81)391625 | Senior Researcher | Fax:+30(81)391609 | Project Leader SIS | Email: [email protected] | | Centre for Cultural Informatics | Information Systems Laboratory | Institute of Computer Science | Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas (FORTH) | | Vassilika Vouton,P.O.Box1385,GR71110 Heraklion,Crete,Greece | | Web-site: http://www.ics.forth.gr/proj/isst | --------------------------------------------------------------
