Dear WG Members,
Version 3.3.0 of the DCMI Metadata Registry
(http://dublincore.org/dcregistry/) was installed today. This release
includes a number of new functions, and a completely redesigned
user-interface. Here is an overview of some of the changes:
- A new 'Terms Overview' option has been added to the browse form, which
illustrates the relationship of terms and their refinements
- User interface style has been removed from the preferences screen and
replaced with an extensible list of 'views' on each of the detail screens.
The current list supports RDF/XML, N-TRIPLE and N3.
- Language preferences are now maintained across sessions
- The search funciton will now include identifiers, in addition to literals,
in searching. Additionally, only search results that match the current
language preference will be returned.
Distributed sites wishing to implement this new version should:
- Update their local copy via CVS
- Re-deploy the application, including the dcregi18n.jar properties file
- (optionally) Reload their database
As always, your comments, suggestions, etc. are encouraged.
Best Regards,
Harry Wagner
