The attributes we need to read in are being defined here: ​http://okfnpad.org/uklii

The design advice is to prepare, test, and maintain a dictionary of XPaths for each of the attributes.

Work effort is to be directed to the maintainability of the XPath statements. We need to know which are needed for which documents, and to have a way of preventing cruft.

Need to establish procedure for automatically generating package names from metadata documents.

We "just" need a schematron.validate(metadata) method. :-)

Discussion between John and Peter:

Given we can identify a document, does the disappearance of a document from a registered source imply the disappearance of the metadata (such that we delete packages once the documents disappear from the registered source)?

I would expect a more explicit 'delete'. The UKLP Use Case Library describes this as "withdraw a dataset or service from publication" (part of UCD03 Maintain resources).
