Although I like the structured solution of option 5, there should be a
semantic unit "preservationPolicy" for this. The preservation level and
the significant properties are heavily related to the policy of the
archiving institution (the agent) and to the associated rights.
Therefore "preservationPolicy" or shorter "Policy" (it's all about
preservation...) could even be an own type of entity in PREMIS. Maybe we
should consider to think about other policy-related issues before making
a decision.
Best regards,
Tobias Steinke
