"inevitable cultural cross-currents that need to be sorted out"... a current (and respectful) demand for RDA in some similar way it was (perhaps) for AACR2 in 1978? Computer systems in general are to inspire a sense of freedom today so that sometimes it would be needed more time for people to reach an expected focus on specific issues as the ones intended here. I hope the already established Wiki platform would be a valuable help in this process. I also hope discussions would help professionals to better manage the next steps of these important calaloguing / library management developments. Best Wishes, Samuel.

Yes, that's the general idea. I think the difficulty arises because
Karen and I are trying to herd the discussion towards the more
practical
issues of Group I entities that we're focusing on right now, and
nobody's particularly inclined to be herded today ... :-) Plus there's
the inevitable cultural cross-currents that need to be sorted out ...
