Thanks for the document. There is some answers to the issues that you
spotted:
* "conventions" attribute: missing in SIS.
* "id" attribute: missing "title" node in the path.
Indeed, those two issues need to be fixed. Thanks for spotting them.
* "source" attribute: missing in both SIS and UnidataDD2MI.xsl file.
Should be fixed too either by a guess on our side, or by contacting the
Unidata community. I can volunteer for copying (if you agree) your table
into SIS-171 [1] so we can give a link to it.
* "comment" attribute: non-existent "supplementalInformation" node.
Actually "supplementalInformation" is defined in a subtype. The
"Metadata/identificationInfo" node is of "Identification" type, which
indeed has no "supplementalInformation". But "Identification" has a few
subtypes, one of them being "DataIdentification". The
"supplementalInformation" node is defined in that subtype. As a way to
convey this information, the Javadoc published on [2] provides a link to
the subtype: clicking on the "supplementalInformation" node brings the
reader directly to the DataIdentification subtype. But this is
non-obvious when reading the text without clicking on it. I would be
glad to format the text differently for making this information more
apparent if we have a good syntax for that. The current approach was an
attempt to avoid too verbose paths, but maybe it was counter-productive.
