Prepared for CIDOC Working Group Data Harvesting and Interchange, CDWA Lite/museumdat Working Group, Collections Trust and Deutscher Museumsbund - Fachgruppe Dokumentation by:
Erin Coburn (ecoburn@getty.edu), Richard Light (richard@light.demon.co.uk), Gordon McKenna (gordon@collectionstrust.org.uk), Regine Stein (r.stein@fotomarburg.de), Axel Vitzthum (avitzthum@digicult.uni-kiel.de)
2010-07-15: version 0.9. This schema version is proposed as common, single schema
for contributing content to cultural heritage repositories. It meets the requirements
articulated by CDWA Lite, museumdat and SPECTRUM.
It is a substantial redesign and enhancement of the CDWA Lite and museumdat
schemas based on recommendations of the CDWA Lite/museumdat Working Group,
community feedback and further CIDOC-CRM analysis. It includes additional concepts
to cope with SPECTRUM requirements.
