The comment period for the RM V1.0 document closed last week. You will find
responses from me, reviewed and endorsed by Tony, on the TWiki at
http://www.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/ResourceMetadataRFC. Before I edit
and update the RM document I would like to vet these changes with the
Registry WG.
Here is a brief synopsis of my responses, which you might wish to read with
the above TWiki document open at the same time.
Re/ comment about "independent", I suggest a minor change of wording, as
shown.
Re/ array-valued elements, I would not change Source, ReferenceURL,
ObjectDensity, any of the data quality elements, or Format (Format is
already an array; the others I would leave as is). The RM coverage
definitions do indeed need to be consistent with the space-time metadata
defnitions. The organizing of the spectral coverage metadata in the schema
is not a matter for the RM document. I will double-check names of
Bandpasses and make sure various descriptions are consistent.
Rename Service.HTTPResults to Service.ResultsMIMEType.
Re/ "constraint", defer to STC definitions.
Re/ Convex, delete.
Re/ Relationship, no change.
Re/ Entity, refer to Dublin Core definition.
Re/ IVOA Identifiers, clarify that these most conform to IVOA Identifier
specification.
Re/ "human-readable format", clarify text.
Re/ Service Metadata examples, fix first example's URL.
Re/ Capability as not required, do not change.
Annotate changes in Section 7 of RM document.
Thanks,
Bob
