Q2. Schema validation and version
| Panel |

| title | Is schema validation used in UC Davis's SCORM implementation? We find it difficult to validate xml since schema files are just missing or out-dated. Some packaging tool forgets to include the imsmd.xml if they pack sco's metadata file in a separate folder and can't be validated. |

- Yes, the UCD tool uses the ADL validator code. I think this code has a fail-over to look for schema files in the webapp if not present to or otherwise in addressable URI space given by the package.
- I have not run into any troubles validating external metadata files useing the ADL code. That does not mean there is no trouble to be found. This should be looked at closer.

| title | Which version of imscp , imsmd and adlcp schemas would you recommend for SCORM 1.2? We found imscp 1.1.3 or 1.1.4, imsmd 1.2.4 and adlcp 1.2 are more appropriate for validation. |

- I have not dealt with SCORM1.2 in a Sakai context... 1.3x code did not even import the packages. Doesn't ADL recommend repackaging all SCORM1.2 content in SCORM2004 CAM? There are conversion scripts for this. We need to decide if triaging is worth saving the coding costs of implementing SCORM1.2 methodologies.
