Re: CDD Metadata / Authorship

 

Dear Luciana,

Actually CCD is supposed to inherit  from AuthoredResource which defines the
meta-data.   So what needs to be done is to copy those attributes from
AuthoredResource onto CCD and they can be completed there.

If you will take care of that I will appreciate it.

Sincerely,
Tim
