for a good real-world implementation, check out the dspace project, notably http://www.dspace.org/technology/metadata.html. i'd like to see a similar scheme in lenya.
All I'd like to see with regard to the Lenya metadata handling is a lightweight abstraction layer providing for a flexible binding of keys that must be considered mandatory for the core usecases to function to whatever datatypes (n-dimensional, take rdf tripples for instance) an integrator might choose to describe her resources - on publication level, sourcetype level and even on resource level.
With regard to managing metadata; I'd consider metadata being just another sourcetype. GUI bindings/editing of that data should be schema driven as "regular" xml resources are too. I don't think a refinement approach of otherwise hardwired 1-dimensional datatypes will lead to a decent solution.
Thanks for keeping up the good work! -- Best regards Thomas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
