RE: ACTION-408, description of "rating"

Thanks for the info.

I don't think that we need any updates, as ma:rating has a way of specifying the type of rating (URI or string), as well as min/max. The only thing that we do not record is whether the unit was stars, points, or anything else ...

Best regards,
Werner

Interestingly, I was about to tell you that 3GPP approved adding a distinct 'star rating' annotation to the metadata set (distinct from 'rating agency rating'), along with 'collection name' and 'thumbnail', last week in San Diego.

Do we need to update any tables?

Hello,
I suggest we add something to the description of "rating" in order to distinguish from "targetAudience":

Proposal:

The rating value based on for example user votes or reviews, specified by a tuple defining the rating value, an optional rating person or organization defined as either a URI (recommended best practice) or as plain text, and an optional voting range. The voting range can optionally be used to define the minimum and maximum values that the rating can have.

Old:

A tuple defining the rating value, an optional rating person or organization defined as either a URI (recommended best practice) or as plain text, and an optional voting range. The voting range can optionally be used to define the minimum and maximum values that the rating can have.

Opinions?
