Karen, At the CODE4LIB Wednesday in Asheville breakout session on API queries http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/2010_Breakout_Sessions#Wednesday we questioned the level of maintenance for NAF, LCSH (by OCLC Research for Identities and Terminologies). I also added a question (below) per your distributed brochure. What is the status of these questions? Are we to deal with dirtier data (compared to NAF/LCSH in CONNEXION) for now? Note: without a WC-DEVNET tracking system, some questions get lost, by chance or by intent.
