[edit] Agenda for DLF OAI and Shareable Metadata Best Practices Working Group
DLF Fall Forum - October 27, 2004 - 1:00-3:00 (Lunch will be provided)
Camden Room, Hyatt Regency Baltimore
Attending: Caroline Arms, Tim Cole, Naomi Dushay (by phone), Muriel Foulonneau, Kat Hagedorn, Martin Halbert, Diane Hillman (by phone), Arwen Hutt, Marty Kurth, Clay Redding, Jenn Riley, Sarah Shreeves (facilitating), Roy Tennant , Simeon Warner (by phone), Jeff Young
Objectives
- Review where we are
- Set priorities for next six months
- Clarify murky areas (how prescriptive do we need to be)
- Set roadmap for next six months
Agenda
1. Where are we? - Current status of work
- Birds of a Feather update
- Response of Aquifer group
- IMLS OAI grant
- Status of wiki
- Other updates?
2. Can we identify the priority areas that we could get done in the next six months?
- shareable metadata
- data provider implementations
- tools surfacing
3. Issues raised in the best practices process
(Note: My (Sarah's) thought is that the issues discussed here should be more about process (specificity of best practices, for example), then about content. However, if there are pressing issues to address in terms of content, these could be raised here as well.)
- Metadata Content - How specific should we be about usage of metadata elements?
- Other Issues?
4. Goal setting / Strategies to get there
- First draft by next milestone realistic? (DLF Spring Forum in April?)
- Schedule conference calls for sub-groups? Set timelines for sub-groups?
- Editing group for first complete draft?
