As I mentioned on the main list, I think what we need and what the OCF people need are the same: some way to add a type or a class to a package file, to declare the root (this is the OCF thing; not sure why they need this), and to have some more general extensibility. I would to see us resolve at least the technical issue of how we'd propose to do it. For example, do we just propose a manifest:class attribute or some such? That way we can do: <manifest:file-entry manifest:class="metadata" manifest:role="citation" manifest:media-type="application/rdf+xml" manifest:href="bibliography.xml"/> Am just throwing an idea at the wall (values could instead be URIs), but I think something like this covers our needs and also OCFs. It makes it easy, for example, for a plug-in to register a link between a custom field and a metadata file. Thoughts? Bruce
