Hi Rubén,
Roles in Roles, Tags in Tags!
Agreed.

And when it comes to deal between <tags><tag>value 1</tag><tag>value 
2</tag></tags>
and <tags>value_1,value_2</tags>

I would like to learn more about tags in mediapackages and in mediapackage 
elements - and how we are using them in the project, and then pick on the 
appropriate approach.

My idea would be to notice, that:
comma separated list: it encourages to use A..Za..z0..1-_ characters
and <tag> approach encourages to use spaces and special characters...

Actually I have to learn if we could use this everywhere in the project, that 
if there is a comma spearated list then only allowed characters are 
A..Za..z0..1-_ in a list element so list:
<alist>abc, def, 
ghi jkl</alist>

is a list of elements: "abc", "def", "hgi" "jkl"

and:  <items> <item>an
element</item></items>

Means that everything can be placed in an item. Special characters (Polish 
letters), spaces etc...

But this is a subject to completly different discussion, about the design, and 
I have to learn more about the project. I am willing to commit to re-implement 
this feature if we will change the approach on the list representative, after 
we will make sure that a rule like the one above applies to entire project.

I hated comma separated list of contributors/creators(?) in mediapackage.
Thanks a lot.

Chris, Pawel,
The Mediapackage elements can be tagged, too, and those tags are represented as:
<tags>   <tag>so-and-so</tag>   <tag>this-and-that</tag>
   <tag>you-say-tomato-and-I-say-tohmahtoh</tag></tags>
Just giving another alternative. 
BTW, since we are rising questions that may be addressed in a very long scope, 
I do think we shouldn't mix role specifications with tags, and we should allow 
another field for roles:

<roles>   <role>ROLE_PAWEL</role>   <role>ROLE_CHRIS</role></roles>
or
<roles>ROLE_PAWEL, ROLE_CHRIS</roles>

(I think in some places roles are represented as a comma-separated list, which 
incidentally rises the question of whether or not we should standarize the way 
we provide lists of elements).

I think this discussion is really interesting and, even though what's being 
discussed here can't be addressed in a short period, a story card should be 
made to reflect all these questions to be kept for the future.

I understand, this is just some single word semantic identifier to

describe the workflow.



Understood,



Chris
