    I'm actually a little confused by a few of the categories...what is the difference between description and descriptive except that one is in the metadata? Isn't all this metadata?? What is administrative? Help!

        * Description

            write description here

        * Status

            write status here

        * Hardware

            write description of equipment, include ppi

        * Software

            write description of the software

        * Metadata

        *
              o Descriptive:

            you get the idea, right?

        *
              o Administrative:

            same thing for this?

        *
              o Georeferencing:

            this could be a yes/no, no?

    Sincerely,

    looks good! basic info, enough for
    persons to understand what's going on,
    but not so much info that it takes
    a relatively long time to fill in.

    Hi Mary et al -

    How about something like this: http://wiki.library.ucla.edu/CalMap_Digital_Project_Inventory

    Technology Platform was a little confusing for me -so I changed that to Hardware, Software. Does that mean the same thing?

    Thanks,
    Kris

    Here is the original template:
    a. Project name
    b. Description (short)
    c. Contact person(s)
    d. Status
    e. Technology platform

    Something like this would be better;
    am sure you all can come up with
    other improvements.

    Template:
    a. Project name
    b. Description (short)
    c. Contact person(s)
    d. Status
    e. Technology platform:
            - equipment (including ppi)

    f. Metadata
            - descriptive
            - administrative
            - georeferencing
