The intention is to define a way to define metadata fields.
Do you mean this literally - ie a mechanism for defining metadat fields? Or do you mean that we should define the fields themselves (as I would tend to). This is
required for searching and useful for metadata read/write too. So lets come up with the properties we allow metadata fields to have. I think what we have so far is what is required for searching too. So this will not be about an API for reading and writing.
Yes. We can postpone the API for now. The most important is the field definitions and groupings of these. I would like to say that this will allow us to have common unit tests
for the data extractors. This is a nice boon.
Huzaa! Cheers, Mikkel
