Minutes

Update/Discussion:

  • Goal: Draft paper for circulation among group
  • RDA20 - Sweden - attended a couple sessions on maDMP
    • They are struggling to get to consensus as well on what should be included
    • Every discipline has its own language/details
    • Consistency is really hard / impossible
  • KU Leuven
    • Rewrote a schema editor in vanilla javascript - DEMO
      • Part of ManGO (PRC-based portal)
    • Draft/published/versioning included -> results in a JSON file
      • Just single version can be published at a time
      • Publishing a new version makes attached items 'invalid'
        • No sweeping/detection yet, that's later
        • Tough to do generically - probably have to be domain-specific
      • Deleting an item from the template
        • Next time a data object or collection's metadata is updated/edited
        • The removed item will no longer be available to edit
        • Will be deleted from the data object or collection
      • Multiple templates attached to single item
        • They are namespaced, so they can be merged / do not conflict
      • Investigating whether to use versioning information in the 'unit' field
        • For both the template version and/or the metadata version
        • Could also save snapshots of existing data if the schemas change
    • Currently following a project paradigm: have permissions for a 3rd-level collection. for example /<zone>/homes/<projectA>
      • Anyone in the project can manage templates for that project
      • Could also have templates for each User, provided they have a home collection
      • Current storage manager is using file system
        • A native irods storage manager is on the todo list (and permissions can be more fine grained then as well)
    • Needs more documentation
      • Will publish/share the repository 'soon'
  • Next Meeting:
    • Apr 2023
