Dear All,

Attached is the starting point of the level 2 standard.

 

This is very much an intermediate between the other two standards, but as was discussed in the TDWG meetings, it is very much needed for a number of reasons.  It will certainly be vital if we are to accommodate (and drive) the metadata choices that are made for the big literature digitization projects that are in the pipeline.

 

Once again, please review:

 

Requirements (do you have others? are these the right ones?)

 

Content elements.

 

Thanks

Anna & Chris
