thanks for this changes I would like: 1) my pref is for something a bit simpler with a lot of the intermediate categories removed (IE Visual, Media, Message, Source cats) 2) The category User does not make sense. User metadata should be applicable to all so best in content if you ask me 3) Content itself seems too file specific to be a top level parent of all the entities. I think DC and User metadata should be there with maybe a FileContent object providing more file specific details 4) I dont like using one metadata name for several differing purposes. EG Email should have an Email.Sender and not a Content.Author (although Email.Sender can subclass Content.Author or even better DC.Author) I would like to see DC metadata at the top with it being abstract and most of the other metadata subclassing it. EG we would have Document.Author subclassing Dc.Creator etc. Trying to share metadata names across categories tend to make it much harder to read IMO hence better use of subclassing and unique names should improve it. Audio needs some Metadata and Contact should use the standard vCard spec fields as this is what Evolution Data server uses. jamie _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
