I'd like to add my voice to Stuart's in thanking Karen for her 
willingness to engage on these thorny implementation issues.  We (Jon 
Phipps and I) are also working on DSP implementation and given that we 
don't always have time to implement AND discuss fully the issues we're 
running into, we appreciate even more that Karen is doing so.

I agree with Stuart as well that the DSP work is critical to DCMI's 
future and it worries me that there doesn't seem to be much attention 
paid to gathering information from the various implementors working out 
here in the hustings.  And while I was interested to see Mikael's answer 
to this question it doesn't really satisfy the needs that Stuart has so 
well expressed. 

I'm not sure that this forum is the best one to move forward on the 
non-technical issues we've brought up, but it would be a mistake to 
ignore them, in my opinion.

Regards,
Diane

If the DSP specification is to gain any traction with implementers, some set of community vetted patterns are sorely needed to augment the very slim DSP documentation [1].  I, for one, have certainly bookmarked Karen's patterns page on the DCMI/RDA Task Group Wiki [2] and look forward to her integration of new patterns stemming from recent posts with Pete (and others).  I trust that there might be some means explored by DCMI for maintaining and augmenting such supplemental documentation--even if that documentation is not prescriptive.

Personally, I think (and I do not believe I am alone in this sentiment) that the AP and the DSP are the most significant direct contributions of DCMI to the metadata community since basic work finished on the core.  So, I am interested in knowing whether DCMI considers the AP/DSP work to be finished or whether these specifications will evolve as the metadata community implements and learns about the strengths and weaknesses of the specifications.  Even though I am an Advisory Board member, I am somewhat uncertain where this question should be addressed to trigger some kind of definitive answer--to the Executive, to the Advisory or Usage boards, or to the Architecture Forum? I am concerned that as significant uses of the DSP are attempted, DCMI has in place a mechanism for gathering input from the community of practice and moving forward in a positive manner with the evolution of these significant DCMI contributions.  Any light that can be cast on this issue would be greatly appreciated by me.
