Scope & Objectives
...
Automating creation and maintenance of in-sync, up-to-date human-readable documentation and batch data entry templates
Enable development of code/gems/microservices which are not tied to specific institutional metadata models and are thus easier to reuse
Facilitate sharing and reuse of metadata models
Support formal releases and versioning of metadata models
Enable development of more flexible infrastructure through abstraction of metadata
With supporting infrastructure, simplify the process for adding new metadata elements or changing metadata based configuration settings, reducing work required and opportunities for errors
Work on an initial draft specification is in the Houndstooth repository and is based on Scooby Snacks and Dog Biscuits
