Thank you, Richard. I didn't think the date in the file-system-level
metadata would affect the checksum; I thought it was just what was inside
the bitstream that affected the checksum. We were interested in keeping the
dates because it shows when something was created or digitized and that
information isn't always included in the record, depending on the
collection.
Thanks again,
Nathan
