1. Update documentation - DC Terms added for testing purposes, point to current doc for adding local schema if you want to use locally (Bram)
2. Check on OAI, see DC Terms schema is included (Maureen) 

Project Re-phasing Work

1. Revise proposal page
   
   1. make old proposal a child of current proposal page as reference point / to mtn history
   2. revise proposal page on main page - streamline, focus on standards, don't focus on 'easing' as much
   3. goal for 5.0 is to have everything included, new installs everything defaults to DC Terms
   4. perhaps 2nd phase could be to create tools to help w/upgrade
   5. keep metadata flat - if you add hierarchal metadata it complicates the use of DSpacee
   6. create an application profile or validator to support – so assumptions can be questioned and vetted – makes it easier for people to give feedback on
   7. create web services query tool (Richard's idea) - to find out how people are using metadata fields - list schemas defined and identify the ones being used
2. Start a list of metadata implications for new features – identify what needs to be cleaned up
   
   1. like RequestCopy, what metadata to use? dc.requestcopy.email, dc.requestcopy.name – use dspace.requestcopy.email, and dspace.requestcopy.name
3. Task & finish groups
   1. DC mapping
      
      1. find DC experts – after re-doing the proposal make list of questions, ask very concrete questions rather than open ended questions
      2. or, if can't resolve for free, request DSpace Steering Cmte allocate funds for consultants
   2. On application profile
   3. Others?
