Hi, I'm curious to know what the conventional way of expressing ordered (i.e., numerically sequential) relationships between FC objects is. A typical use case here is a 24-page newspaper issue, where the 'issue'-level object has no page image datastreams but its RELS-EXT datastream points to (using a hasPart assetion) all 24 'page'-level objects (which each have TIFF, JPG, thumbnail, and text transcript datastreams). Each page object's RELS-EXT datastream points to the parent issue object with a isPartOf assertion.
In METS, structMap div elements use the ORDER attribute to indicate sequence (for example of the pages in a newspaper issue). Unless I am missing something, the Fedora relationship ontology doesn't express sequence in relationships such as hasPart, and I can't find any reference to order in the FOXML schema or examples. If anyone can point me to some examples or documentation I've missed, I'd appreciate it. Mark Mark Jordan Head of Library Systems W.A.C.
