Decide on the Fall Face-to-Face Meeting

According to the google sheet, a meeting at DLF (November 7-9) will be pursued. Tom will get in touch with the organizers to check the options, participants might have to register soon.

PREMIS in METS toolbox – call for help

Peter McKinney sent out a request for help to update the PREMIS in METS Toolbox. No volunteers from the attending board members – maybe someone absent is interested?

Location of METS board's Meeting Minutes

The question was raised recently whether the LoC should just link to the meeting minutes at GitHub instead of copy them to the LoC website. GitHub seems easier to maintain and none of the present members has any objection to hosting them outside of LoC. So yes, we'll just link to GitHub.

ContainerMD

Originally, the ContainerMD-standard was developed by the BNF to describe container formats. It is intended to be used as an extension both directly within METS or within PREMIS. In a first step, ARC/WARC files were addressed. Bertrand/Robin announce that an extension of version 1.1 for the Disk Image has been drafted and will be sent to the respective communities for review soon.

METS Sections Spreadsheet

There is still a number of profiles waiting to be analyzed in our Google spreadsheet. Last month's meeting minutes contain the necessary details about syntax and general intention, especially the expected outcome.
