Hi Vincent, I've been looking at this Draft Recommendation also. The JATS Standing Committee has already received a public comment concerning NISO RP-22-201x, which we will discuss at the next meeting. My personal opinion is that probably nothing will be recommended to be added to the standard until the OA Metadata Indicators is out of Draft status and in use. There has been a lot of talk about this draft recommendation, and I imagine that the final recommendation will differ from the draft that we have all just read. As far as how it will or should be implemented in JATS once there is a final published recommendation is still up for discussion. I like your enthusiastic "out with the old model, in with the new" take on things. That would certainly be the cleanest - for anyone who wants to do it that way. Anyone who would want to use the existing license model would be out of luck. I imagine we will wind up with enough elements in there (old and new) that it will be possible to build some really clunky and ugly structures. This is where documentation and Best Tagging Practices come into play. It would be ideal if a group of publishers who were very interested in Open Access Metadata Indicators created a best practices for tagging license/license-reference material in JATS. Certainly this would lead to consistency in the way that this information would be tagged. We will hear about some of this at JATS-Con (April 1 & 2 on the NIH Campus in Bethesda, MD). Perhaps the recommendation will be out of Draft by then. It should lead to some lively and productive discussions. If you haven't registered for JATS-Con yet, we're running a special this afternoon. Half off registration if you mention my name. http://jats.nlm.nih.gov/jats-con/forms/JATSregistration.html Jeff On 1/17/14 2:03 PM, "Lizzi, Vincent" <Vincent.Lizzi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >We are reviewing NISO RP-22-201x, Open Access Metadata Indicators >(http://www.niso.org/workrooms/oami/), in relation to JATS.
