There's a project with open issues set up at [1] with the open issues provided by Lars Marius. Obviously, this isn't worked on since more than a year. At the autumn 2009 ISO meeting in Seattle, the question came up if this project should be dropped (from ISO work). It would have been dropped at this point if nobody signed up to work on it, so I did, because I thought it is valuable. A while later it couldn't make it to the TMLab priority list so it's still orphaned until now. :( I cannot commit on it in my work time, so if at all, it would be a side project. Everybody is invited to resolve the open issues. As soon as they're resolved, we could bring it up in the next ISO meeting (March in Prague, AFAIK) and a new CD should be prepared. --Benjamin [1] http://projects.topicmapslab.de/projects/dc On Wed, Oct 6, 2010 at 10:59 AM, Lars Heuer <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I wonder if someone is working on WD 29111 [1] and if I can safely use > the proposed PSIs and mappings. > > Further, I found some oddities like mapping dc:creator to an > association, which does not work in 98% of the use cases I found > since dc:creator is almost always a string containing just the name of > the creator (which is also proposed by Dublin Core [2]).
