The PREMIS Data Dictionary for Preservation Metadata 1.0 was released in May 2005. Since that time, it has undergone considerable study and discussion within the digital preservation community. Now, nearly 18 months later, sufficient feedback has been accumulated to warrant undertaking the first revision of the Data Dictionary - i.e., PREMIS Data Dictionary 2.0.
The PREMIS Maintenance Activity recently announced the formation of an Editorial Committee http://www.loc.gov/standards/premis/ma.html responsible for managing the PREMIS Data Dictionary. The Committee's near-term priority will be to revise the Data Dictionary and related XML schema. The revision process will be conducted in collaboration with the digital preservation community. The forum for participation will be the PREMIS Implementers' Group e-mail discussion list ("PIG list"). In this forum, interested parties can make suggestions for and discuss revisions to the Data Dictionary. Progress on the revision will be reported on the PIG list. If you are interested in participating in the revision of the PREMIS Data Dictionary, please make sure that you are subscribed to the PIG list. Participation is open to all. To subscribe to the list, send an e-mail message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with message text: subscribe pig <your name> Announcements regarding initiation of the revision will appear shortly on the PIG list.
