Dear Diane, dear All,
could it be the term 'registry' is confusing in itself? There seem some ideas living with it, which don't quite fit together.
1. Proper documentation of what is the current state of the vocabulary 'developed' by DCMI.
There is an evolving number of boards supervising and steering this process.
Here we have: recommended
deprecated
under revisionBy
proposedBy wgXY, individual, external body
recognizedAs compliant, beyound, inconsistend with
(probably some more categories)
2. 'Listing' of metadata vocabulary, which is somewhere used. No position taken by any body of DCMI?
Does 'listing' in itself needs specialized vocabulary. In case one needs some: Is there any body within DCMI
maintaining it?
3. Listing of 'application profiles': Are we done with coining the term 'application profile'? Shouldn't we ask for
more feedback from implementors?
4. Technology to support 1,2 and eventually 3.
5. Organizational backbone.
Cheers
