Does this mean that this group should create new bibliographic models? Or that it should define current models in RDF? (e.g. FRBR, FRAD) The former seems quite ambitious, but if the latter, I would say that the agencies that developed the models should take that responsibility. Of course, they can out-source it to this group or anyone else with RDF skills, but I think the responsibility lies with the maintainers of the model and showed be "owned" by them. > 2.

Again, defining them in RDFS or SKOS seems to be a role for the vocabulary maintenance agencies, but it would be helpful to have a forum for encouraging those agencies based on need. This fits with the recommendations of the W3C LLD Incubator group (which will be published in the next few weeks). > 3.

I think bibliographic applications are a good test case for it, but it would also be helpful to have some non-bibliographic applications that it also needs to address so that the end result isn't skewed. (Maybe it's just the hill I am standing on, but it does seem that bibliographic data is charging ahead other other data types.) > 4.

I'm assuming that all links have a creator, and that in the LD world there will be many links representing the views of many different creators. Who will be the creator of these links? DC? the TG? (This reminds me of PICS, the standard for tagging sites .) kc > > [The proposal is also attached as a Word document.] > > Gordon Dunsire, co-Chair > Diane Hillmann, co-Chair > DCMI/RDA Task Group > > [1]http://www.ifla.org/en/frbr-rg[FRBR Namespaces Project progress reports > subsequent to the report of July 2008 are incorporated in minutes of meetings > and reports to the IFLA Cataloguing Section.] > [2]http://www.ifla.org/en/node/1795 > [3]http://conference.ifla.org/sites/default/files/files/papers/ifla77/187-dunsire-en.pdf > [4]http://www.ifla.org/en/unimarc/puc > [5]http://dcevents.dublincore.org/index.php/IntConf/dc-2011/paper/view/52/6 > [6]https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A2=ind1109&L=DC-AB&F=&S=&P=7454 -- Karen Coyle [log in to unmask] http://kcoyle.net ph: 1-510-540-7596 m: 1-510-435-8234 skype: kcoylenet
