We are in the process of designing a Fedora repository for archival
preservation of our digital content and have a question regarding best
practices advice for the RELS-EXT datastream. The Fedora RELS-EXT ontology
(http://www.fedora.info/definitions/1/0/fedora-relsext-ontology.rdfs) includes
RDF properties for both directions of a relationship (e.g., "isPartOf" and
"hasPart"). Do most installations implement both directions of such a
relationship - i.e., the "whole" object has a RELS-EXT datastream with a
"hasPart" relationship to each of its "parts" _and_ each "part" object has a
RELS-EXT datastream with a "isPartOf" relationship to the corresponding
"whole"? Or do you typically pick one side or the other to represent in
RELS-EXT - either the "hasPart" relationship from whole to part _or_ the
"isPartOf" relationship from part to whole _but not both_? Interested in best
practices advice, a sense of what the common practice is, etc.
Thanks!
