neither a domain or thesaurus is identified (particlarly literature
catalogs) so unless this is optional, you will discourage people from
converting older data to EML. This is the same issue i tried to raise with
the name fields in party. I cant load a bibliograpy from Endnote into a
valid EML Literature file without first splitting all the author fields into
first middle and last names, and assigning domains to all the keywords.
These steps cannot be 100% automated and will probably hinder adoption of
EML Literature as a bibliography exchange format.

Subject: Re: Keyword types in EML


Matt, 

If we agree to stick with the present EML keywords 
theme, place, stratum and temporal, I can change the Web form script
(load-dataset.cgi) to include a taxonomic keyword (to go into taxonomicCov,
keywtax, taxonkey) an a "none" (to be dropped in the XML file).  Is there
anything else we need to consider for the Web form?  

For the EML-DEVers who may not recently have looked at the Web forms, they
are at
http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/cgi-bin/load-dataset.cgi?cfg=nrs
and 
http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/cgi-bin/load-dataset.cgi?cfg=obfs
