Tim Donohue updated DS-805:
---------------------------

    Status: Open  (was: Received)

> QDC schema registry needs to be brought into conformity with the current DCMI 
> standards
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: DS-805
>                 URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-805
>             Project: DSpace
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.7.1, 1.8.0
>            Reporter: Jeffrey Trimble
>            Assignee: Jeffrey Trimble
>            Priority: Major
>
> The Qualified Dublin Core registry currently used by DSpace is approximately 
> 8 years without changes to the field names/usage.  Between the time that 
> DSpace 1.1 was distributed and the current time, Dublin Core standards were 
> spun off from OCLC as the parent/guardian of the standard to it's own 
> Identity, known as DCMI (Dublin Core Metadata Initiative).
> I am suggesting that in a future release, perhaps as early as 1.8 that the 
> DSpace Metadata Schema Registry be revised to reflect the newest standards 
> for coding metadata using QDC.  Additionally, there may be the need to 
> convert currently used fields in the registry to the new standard fields for 
> existing installations of DSpace.  Also, the Lucene and browse indexes would 
> be affected by this change.
> There will be a caveat that institutions that have added their own DC fields, 
> may need to perform some manual maintenance to adjust their registry tables 
> to this new standard.
> I would be happy to put together a spreadsheet with the new standards and 
> their counterpart currently used in DSpace.
