Hi all,
In rel_2_2, every framework can have holdings fields, and this can lead to confusion when there are conflicts. I propose that in rel_3_0 we eliminate that confusion and only have holdings fields for the default framework. Any objections to this?
Not sure I follow you here. So would it work this way, you enter your bibliographic information using your framework, then for the holdings information it flicks to the default framework? How about for frameworks other than default, you can't link to any items fields. And for any functions that check for mappings to items tables, they only pull from default framework.
The alternative is what we have now in rel_2_2, where you can have one framework for BOOKS, with items.barcode linked to 952$p, then you can go and create another framework for PERI, with items.barcode linked to 952$b. And I'm pretty sure we haven't coded carefully enough in rel_2_2 for those to both work all the time ... and in Zebra, it won't work at all because you'd have to define a new entry in record.abs for each of those frameworks entries. Hope that clarifies. Joshua
