Scope & Objectives

There have been a number of projects, discussions, and brainstorming around better ways to define, document, and use metadata models.  This working group will develop a draft specification for a machine-readable format for metadata modeling, which can be used to generate human/user-facing documentation, batch data entry templates, and define system functionality (and maybe more!)
