Discussions > Google Search Appliance/Google Mini > Filtering on Dublin Core metadata possible?:
-
Google mini (http://www.google.com/enterprise/search/mini.html) does not like dot notation but also the colon gives problems. Playdough writes:
We've run into the same problem. Our institution uses GSA V5.2. We've modified the separator from a dot to a dash (e.g. DC-creator instead of DC.creator). In our tests, we've found that both the dot and colon are parsed incorrectly by the GSA in metadata searches. The dash however, seems to function.

-
Develop a short document for RDF implementors, clarifying the resource vs. literal string value issue and providing advice on best practice.
-
Consider possible RDF encoding changes (in light of above issue), carry out an impact analysis and make recommendations.
-
Finalise the provision of a persistent URI for the latest version of our XML schemes.
-
Develop an XML binding for Dublin Core metadata which supports all (or a substantial subset) of the features of the
DCMI Abstract Model. Revise DCMI XML schemas accordingly.
-
Finalise revisions to the Namespace Policy for the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI) to align use of terminology with other DCMI recommendations.
-
Evaluate use of GRDDL as mechanism for transforming arbitrary DC/XML documents into RDF (DCMI Abstract Model).
-
Monitor W3C developments for encoding RDF in XHTML and revise current DC/XHTML guidelines as necessary.
-
Develop abstract model of 'DC application profiles'.
-
Consider developing a representation of the DCMI Box, Period and Point encoding schemes using the DCMI Abstract Model.
