I have mixed feelings about this proposal, having lived through presenting and discussing proposals to expand the set of relationship designators in original RDA. I believe the Translations Team Liaison Officer has made a reasonable justification, but the RSC will need to deal with this "slippery slope". ...

RE: Proposal to Add Familial Relationship Elements to Official RDA

Hi Karl- We either have a problem of missing elements (inverses that are mentioned but not proposed: relative of, spouse of, and sibling of), or a problem of incorrect references to inverses for those elements. I think it's the latter. For example, see how "colleague" is currently treated in Official ...

I generally approve of this proposal. However, I have a few technical comments about the addressing and numbering of this document. It should be directed to CC:DA, not the RSC. Once approved, the CC:DA Chair has the responsibility to finalize and submit it to NARDAC. That group will use it as the ...

Hi everyone- Based on today's CC:DA discussion, I have prepared a revision of the TF's proposal to Remove string encoding scheme instructions from base RDA. (Attached.) This document still needs a vote from CC:DA to make its way to NARDAC (and hopefully the RSC!) Kathy ------------------------------ ...

RE: Request for Comment: Proposal for Manifestation: Sequence of Units of Extent

Found In Egroup: Core CC:DA Public Space \ view thread
I generally support this proposal, with the following comment: ALA has previously raised concerns about the use of the term "misleading numbering" applying to numbering "leaves" when there's content on both sides, which makes it "pages". The RDA Glossary definition of leaf is: "A unit of extent that ...

I generally support this proposal. The proposal goes into some detail about the two existing definitions of "container" in official RDA. However, it appears that this problem was previously solved by the RSC. The RDA Terms vocabulary does not hold the second definition at this time, nor are the two ...

Recommendation 1: Create the element Manifestation: extent of embodied content. Comment: Generally agree - but where is the text of the instructions?
