<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I think in addition to defining the community that needs the new Origin term, you also need to define the use cases to which the proposed controlled vocabularies
for establishmentMeans and occurenceStatus apply. Darwin Core is used in multiple ways. I think there may be use cases for these terms that don’t match the invasive species use cases. One controlled vocabulary may not work for all Darwin Core users.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Quentin,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for your effort in putting forth these welll thought out proposals. At various times I have heard discussions on the inadequecy of establishmentMeans. Your work encapsulates the problem well. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">One of the things that helps when proposing to add a Darwin Core term is demonstrating that there is a community that needs it. Can you tell us who has a demonstrated need to share this information? Anyone out there who has this interest
is also welcome to share that here to provide evidence of demand from more than one group, project or individual.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">From my perspective it provides some needed clarity on the establishmentMeans and occurrenceStatus fields, but also adds the origin that is needed for invasive species research and for conservation assessments.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I'm not sure of the best way to discuss this, but if you have concrete proposals for changes you might raise them as issues on GitHub, as well as mentioning them here.<o:p></o:p></p>
