EDTF gem is using draft spec?

Open lsat12357 opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

We ran into a problem with this value "../.." which is defined in Level 1 of the EDTF spec here http://www.loc.gov/standards/datetime/

The EDTF gem which I believe is this one? https://github.com/inukshuk/edtf-ruby says in its readme that it uses "EDTF specification (version September 16, 2011)" while the LOC page mentions that a 'draft' of the spec was published in 2012, and one of the things that was added after the draft was the use of ".."

EDTF gem will be turned off until we can look at our options (fork existing gem, make our own, etc.) post-launch. This will have an effect on the edtf-humanize gem.

For QA, I think modifying an existing asset through the GUI with a non-edtf-valid date and be able to save it should work?

QA pass EDTF validation is disabled. Work had date manually changed: Date 1921-1922

We still want to confirm the support of the gem and the exact standards.
