Hi all, I have been migrating some old records from MySQL to Fedora, and have been using some of the newer DC terms available since December 2006 in the "dcterms" namespace: http://purl.org/dc/terms/.
It seems the compulsory DC datastream defaults to the "dc" namespace (http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/). I went ahead and changed this in my FOXML files to the newer one, hoping it might add support for new terms like "alternative", "extent" and so on. Upon ingestion however it looks like only those terms which are also in the legacy namespace come through, and the "http://purl.org/dc/terms/"; value gets replaced with the "http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"; value. I assume then that Fedora doesn't support the new terms in its DC datastream. If so, has there been a statement on when this might come to pass? Or does anyone know a way to have these elements shown in the DC datastream after ingest? Assuming Fedora isn't going to work with these elements on this release, my solution will be to add in a custom inline datastream holding these values for me. Anyone had experience with this issue? Thanks- Walker ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fedora-commons-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fedora-commons-users
