Component properties and/or file metadata record?[edit]
Resources[edit]
- file properties which are defined and maintained by Framework: http://www.escidoc-project.de/schemas/soap/item/0.6/components.xsd
- escidoc application profile file: http://colab.mpdl.mpg.de/mediawiki/ESciDoc_Application_Profile_File
Status[edit]
The file-size will be removed from the properties - that means we need to create it in our file metadata record. But on the other hand side, keeping only file-size in the metadata record as a single metadata makes no sense to me. So the questions are:
- shall we stick with the file size only in the metadata record
- shall we put the file size and redundantly keep as well properties in the metadata record (may be important for things like LTA, dissemination)
- shall we remove the file size completely from the metadata record
Questions
- Are there any use cases in which the framework change a component property? Something like "creation-date", "created-by" and "valid-status" is probably completely controlled by FIZ while other properties like "description", "content-category" are only modified by the application only (Am I right?). So, we probably don't want to copy the complete set of properties, but duplicate selected information (= all terms described by functional experts = listed in application profile file) --Inga 11:46, 15 May 2008 (CEST)
- For items we already split information between metadata record and property (e.g. the item status/identifier) is in the properties while descriptive information is in the metadata record. This would be fine for files too - if we have a common understanding about what characterize a property and what characterize an attribute in the metadata (see below) --Inga 11:31, 15 May 2008 (CEST)
Further questions[edit]
- Could somebody please explain why the file size should be removed from properties, thus which characteristic makes an information to a property? --Inga 11:31, 15 May 2008 (CEST)
- How would the object look like? Item xsd with one metadata record and additional metadata records for each component?
