Hi Jim, and hi everyone,
Here is a further reference: it's about the use of FRBRoo and CIDOC CRM in
the French research project named "DOREMUS", which focuses on the
extension of both ontologies to the field of music (concert planning,
scores, audio and video recordings, and documentation about musical works,
from heterogeneous data stores produced by various institutions with
various descriptive traditions and formats): <
http://library.ifla.org/1322/1/093-choffe-fr.pdf >. Unfortunately, the
paper is only available in French so far, but an English translation will
be provided very soon -- hopefully (once it is available, it will be
accessed from: < http://library.ifla.org/1322/1/093-choffe-en.pdf >.
"Serious-ontologies-bashing" has turned quite trendy nowadays. CIDOC CRM
is not its only victim; FRBR-LRM, the IFLA model that integrates FRBRer,
FRAD, and FRSAD, was venomously attacked too, by narrow-minded advocates
of "quick and dirty Frankenstein ontologies". In these times of
selfishness and fragmentation, consistency and robustness are deemed
outmoded. I've no clue what will result from these trends; but for sure
they're here to stay. The smart advocates of the "Pick whichever property
from whatever ontology you like" attitude will only realize the mess
they've created when it is too late.
Best wishes,
Patrick Le Boeuf

Fellow SIG folk,
I've had a while to think about things, and want to report a slight change
of plan.
I greatly appreciate the excellent information provided in the thread of
this discussion, and it has certainly been a wonderful personal learning
experience to find out about the exciting implementations and support for
the #cidocCRM in deployed systems in such prestigious institutions and
research centers.
I have, however, decided to "keep my head down" and not write a Medium
article to encourage the DPLA to be more open and transparent with its
Archival Description Working Group (ADWG) and to better support
international standards, especially the #cidocCRM, in its hiring of a Data
Usage and Analytics Developer.
It is hard enough just being an independent, unaffiliated
#CitizenScientist. Being an advocate for the #cidocCRM in the U.S. with
our too often "Not Invented Here" and "Go Big or Go Home" attitudes, I
can't risk alienating an organization that I hope to eventually have
credibility and influence with.
That said, when I do have a chance in the next few weeks, I plan to write
an non-DPLA-oriented article focused on the wonderful systems, projects,
and institutional support of the #cidocCRM as evidenced by Dominic's
tweets and the various posts to this discussion. So, in this sense, please
do not hesitate to provide additional contributions to this list citing
the "latest and greatest" #cidocCRM-compatible systems.
BTW, I am especially interested in learning about any projects or
institutions using or planning to use #FRBRoo and, most especially,
#PRESSoo.
I also look forward to learning more about the recent two paper sessions
on the CRM at #CIDOC2016 in Milan.
Happy-Healthy Vibes,
