All Hands Meeting 2005 Taxon Agenda And Notes

Difference between version 18 and version 17:

Line 84 was replaced by line 84
- ** EML is already designed to contain species name information. 9000 EML data records now, planning version upgrade now. Matt: We need a full proposal that is well fleshed out before Matt can put the proposal changes into the EML maintenance process.
+ ** Matt: context of current EML handling of taxon data. EML is already designed to contain species name information. 9000 EML data records now, planning version upgrade now. Matt: We need a full proposal that is well fleshed out before Matt can put the proposal changes into the EML maintenance process. US Federal Biological Data Profile (BDP) wanted classification tree in the metadata. Does not allow repeatable taxonomic classifications, but EML does to allow for taxa in different trees (e.g. animals and plants) in one record. Matt has asked them to allow for multiple classifications but the BDP committee is now largely defunct, agencies not meeting anymore on this.
At line 91 added 1 line.
