It doesn't cover absolutely everything, but does seem to have all the critical bits. A few quibbly points: * having the MARC as base64 encoded content in a field is missing the more useful aspects of XML. It would seem to be that it'd be better to namespace it in as MARC-XML. This'd make it possible to use XSLT to transforms on that if needed. * LDIF is a confusing name, as it's already the LDAP Data Interchange Format. Although, I suspect that it's hard to pick unique names these days... * The address element is very US-centric, and doesn't include country. * How does it work that there are three people with the same surname and barcode and ID? Assuming it's children, I hope that one of them doesn't keep their mother's surname, as that would make the schema very awkward. * A schema and an example isn't quite enough to make good use of it (although it's a billion times better than being forced to reverse engineer!), is there actual documentation somewhere, perhaps a heavily annotated version of the XSD would do. Also, your file is 40MB rather than 4, which really is too big for firefox to handle gracefully :) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.
