Faulty RDF mapping?

RintzeRintze
I think I found a bug with RDF export: the "Proceedings Title" field of the Conference Paper item type maps to the CSL "container-title" variable (see http://aurimasv.github.io/z2csl/typeMap.xml#map-conferencePaper ; I confirmed that this works correctly in the Reference Test Pane of Zotero 4.0.8). However, upon export to RDF both the "Title" and "Proceedings Title" fields end up in <dc:title/> elements. See https://gist.github.com/rmzelle/5745838

    Where do you think it should appear?

    Right now conference proceedings do not have a container (they do have a series). My solution would be to introduce a container of type bib:Proceedings which would serve the same purpose as a bib:Book for bookSection. The title would then go in there.

    RDF export really needs to be revisited and revised. There are quite a few problems that I'm seeing.

    Exporting and importing via RDF results in loss of the "Proceedings Title" field. I don't know enough about the RDF design to comment on the best solution, but I would like to see a round-trip conversion without data loss.

    I would as well. I'm working on a proposal for the revised RDF format.

    In bibliontology that's
    <dcterms:isPartOf>
    <bibo:Proceedings>
    <dcterms:date>1993-11-01</dcterms:date>
    <dcterms:title>Proceedings</dcterms:title>
    </bibo:Proceedings>
    </dcterms:isPartOf>
