Topic: Workflow Definition pattern and MetadataResource

I've been reviewing the workflow report for the CDS and CQI resources and determining changes to be made, and some of them are inconsistent with the MetadataResource, which makes me think we ought to get the MetadataResource in sync with the Definition pattern before applying these changes to the knowledge resources, yes? @Lloyd McKenzie

what's not consistent?

1) identifier in MetadataResource is 0..*, the Definition pattern is 0..1
2) Definition.performerType overlaps with useContext[code=user]
3) publisher in MetadataResource is a string, should be aligned with Definition.publisher
4) derivedFrom, partOf, and replaces are all things that MetadataResource would benefit from

3. I think that's sufficient alignment
4. could be

Those sound reasonable, but then I think the Definition pattern is too workflow'y :)

In other words, if a resource aligns with MetadataResource, I wouldn't expect the Workflow Report to give warnings about those things.

MetaDataResource and Definition are two different views on a resource. Possible to be aligned with one and not the other.

That's fair, perhaps I've tried to apply the brush too broadly. Would you agree that Measure is a Definition resource though?

I think so

We've classified it as such at the moment :)
