RE: Proof of use of EPUB and Accessibility specification properties

Thanks John!

Right, as far as I’m aware we do not have to prove that the elements in the various grammars are in use, only that the additional metadata properties we’ve defined have real-world use. The reading system tests offer proof that the elements are processable, which is all that is required of them.

 

But I’m sure Ivan will jump in at some point if I’ve got any of the process details wrong.

Hi Matt,

 

On behalf of Pearson, I have updated these tables as requested and created a Pull Request for both. 

 

I note that while you did not ask, for what it is worth we are also routinely using the following optional Dublin Core terms as well:

* dc:creator 
* dc:date 
* dc:type 
* dc:description 
* dc:format 
* dc:publisher 
* dc:rights 
* dc:source 
* dcterms:modified 
* dcterms:dateCopyrighted

Hi folks,

 

As you may or may not be aware, part of moving the EPUB 3.3 and Accessibility 1.1 specifications to recommendation requires showing that publishers are using the various package document metadata properties defined in those specifications.

 

To that end, we’re asking for publishers to formally acknowledge the properties they use in our candidate recommendation exit reports. The properties do not have to be included in all your publications; the requirement is only that you actively use them in your workflows.

 

For those who are comfortable using GitHub and markdown, the EPUB 3.3 specification report is at [1] and the Accessibility 1.1 specification report is at [2]. Please feel free to create a new pull request that adds your organization’s name to the lists for each property you use. For those who have access rights, you can also edit the files directly from the GitHub interface (click the pencil icon at the top right of the markdown text).

 

If you’re not comfortable with GitHub, I’m attaching a text file with the values from those pages, as well as pasting the values below my signature in case anyone has the attachment blocked. You can return the list of properties you use to me and/or Ivan to add to the report pages (you don’t need to reply to the group email lists). Feel free to reply however best suits you – send the list back in a response body or as an attachment, delete the values you don’t use or check off the ones you do, etc. Whatever makes this as painless for you as possible!

 

Please feel free to forward this request to anyone else who might be interested; it’s not only for W3C members.

Many thanks in advance for your help!
