Fellow SIG folk,
I've had a while to think about things, and want to report a slight change of
plan.
I greatly appreciate the excellent information provided in the thread of this
discussion, and it has certainly been a wonderful personal learning experience
to find out about the exciting implementations and support for the #cidocCRM in
deployed systems in such prestigious institutions and research centers.
I have, however, decided to "keep my head down" and not write a Medium article
to encourage the DPLA to be more open and transparent with its Archival
Description Working Group (ADWG) and to better support international standards,
especially the #cidocCRM, in its hiring of a Data Usage and Analytics Developer.
It is hard enough just being an independent, unaffiliated #CitizenScientist.
Being an advocate for the #cidocCRM in the U.S. with our too often "Not
Invented Here" and "Go Big or Go Home" attitudes, I can't risk alienating an
organization that I hope to eventually have credibility and influence with.
That said, when I do have a chance in the next few weeks, I plan to write an
non-DPLA-oriented article focused on the wonderful systems, projects, and
institutional support of the #cidocCRM as evidenced by Dominic's tweets and the
various posts to this discussion. So, in this sense, please do not hesitate to
provide additional contributions to this list citing the "latest and greatest"
#cidocCRM-compatible systems.
BTW, I am especially interested in learning about any projects or institutions
using or planning to use #FRBRoo and, most especially, #PRESSoo.
I also look forward to learning more about the recent two paper sessions on the
CRM at #CIDOC2016 in Milan.
Happy-Healthy Vibes,
