I gave that presentation before RELS-INT was a part of the Fedora core; but that was some time ago, and it has been in Fedora releases, and in use, for a while. We started using RELS-INT ourselves about a year ago, mostly to relate technical metadata datastreams to their bitstream datastreams. There's really not much of a secret to RELS-INT: you use it to specify relations among datastreams within an object in the same way RELS-EXT is used to provide relations among objects. I can send you some sample objects, if you're interested. > And another interesting part is, how should I store the order of the pages? > Should I include a datastream containing the Structural section of a METS > document? > Or should I create some meaningful relationships to use RELS-INT/RELS-EXT? We ended up creating a METS datastream to store sequence data and relationship data outside RELS-EXT. This is not ideal, as we end up duplicating some data in both RELS-EXT and the METS datastream, but the benefits so far have outweighed the costs of maintaining relations in two places. -- Scott Prater Library, Instructional, and Research Applications (LIRA) Division of Information Technology (DoIT) University of Wisconsin - Madison pra...@wisc.edu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer -- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE!
