W3C Link?

Why is the W3C listed in the external links section? There's no mention of it anywhere in the article.

Open Source Discussion

Changed wording to accurately reflect the opinion in the reference cited about the GPL compatibility of Adobe's XMP license. The source said he "doubts" that the source is compatable, and the rest of the discussion debates the finer points with no concensus. --joeOnSunset 20:54, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

alternatives

what are the alternatives?

And how widespread is it anyway? This blog calls it the "new favorite" but I've only recently heard it mentioned at all. I don't feel very inclined to encode picture metadata in yet another format (in addition to EXIF, IPTC, JPEG comments, DC ...) It seems weird that Creative Commons are recommending it, seeing that it's not an open standard. Is there any initiative to develop a really open metadata standard?--87.162.38.128 (talk) 17:13, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

interesting article

see OpenDocument metadata and XMP

XML in XMP

Can someone please elaborate on the serialization of XMP to XML, i.e. what format is used, maybe provide a short example? thanks

Why doesn't Lightroom support XMP?

XMP is supported by a lot of Adobe's products. Up to now I have no idea, why XMP is not supported by Lightroom. E. g. at this discussion thread is mentioned, "You cannot display XMP files in LR. You can read the data from them, and can write data to them, but can never see them in LR." Does anyone know why this is the case? Hasenläufer (talk) 10:25, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
