Hi Rebecca,
That is great news. Thanks for the update and thanks to you and all the
committee members for all the work that goes into a standards project.
Best regards, Evan

Subject: Re: [PIG] Timetable for final review and release of new
version?
Evan:
We are in the last stages of completing the revision and our goal has
been
to have it out around the middle of March-- so it is very close. All of
the changes are documented on the website (except there are a few last
revisions I need to make on the page):
http://www.loc.gov/standards/premis/changes.html
We will release the data dictionary and report along with a draft
version
of the schemas within the next few weeks (certainly by the end of
March). We will have a period of review for the schemas, since there is
some major restructuring. For the Data Dictionary, we have based changes
on the many comments we have gotten over a two year period or so after
we
issued a call for comments.
So stay tuned...
Rebecca
