Thanks very much for this! Looks very good!
Just a few things I noticed....
I think these first three points are issues with the schemas being
indexed rather than the registry application, so you probably know this
already, but anyway:
1. I think there are still a few stray terms in the
http://purl.org/dc/terms/ namespace e.g. "classification", "note",
"release" (maybe others I didn't spot!)
2. The relationships between the classes for the individual encoding
schemes and the classes for [xxx]Scheme aren't quite right. I think
Roland and I discussed this at
http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/wa.exe?A2=ind0202&L=dc-architecture&F=
&S=&P=6808
and rest of that thread.
I think the schema in Appendix 5 of
http://dublincore.org/documents/2002/04/14/dcq-rdf-xml/
has those relations correct now (rdf:type not rdfs:subClassOf)
3. There appears to be an entry for an untyped resource "type" in the
http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/ namespace? I think this is an error in the
schema at http://dublincore.org/2001/08/14/dctype. I think the intention
was to specify a rdfs:range for http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/type,
not http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/type. Anyway, again, I think the schema
in Appendix 5 of
http://dublincore.org/documents/2002/04/14/dcq-rdf-xml/
might be more accurate?
A few (terribly trivial!) things which I think _are_ related to the
registry application:
1. The drop-down list on the "display" box on the search page offers
"Qualifiers" as an option: I think what are being returned here are
"Element Refinements". According to
http://dublincore.org/documents/dcmes-qualifiers/
"Qualifiers" covers both "Element refinements" and "Encoding schemes".
So I think the term in your drop-down list should be "Element
refinements" not "Qualifiers".
2. If I select, the option "Namespaces" from that dropdown list (without
making any other entries on the form), I only see 4 items found:
Summary of Registered Namespaces Items Found:4
http://dublincore.org/2000/03/13/eor#
http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/
http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#
http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#
But there are clearly two other namespaces indexed (dcmitype, dcterms)
and I (correctly) see 6 "Schemas", so looks like a glitch somewhere in
that query?
3. References to documents like http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/
are rendered as hyperlinks like:
http://wip.dublincore.org:8080/dcregistry/queryServlet?reqType=detail&it
em=http%3A%2F%2Fdublincore.org%2Fdocuments%2Fdces%2F
i.e. queries to the registry which return no results.
I guess the desired rendition would be a straight hyperlink to
http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/ but I can see that this might be
hard to do.
Cheers
Pete
