<std-doc-meta> Standards Document Metadata

A container element for metadata that pertains to the entire standards document. By design, the elements inside <std-doc-meta> are the elements that all the standards organizations share. Any element within <std-doc-meta> may be overridden by placing the same element within any of the four organization-specific metadata elements: <std-meta>, <iso-meta>, <reg-meta>, or <nat-meta>.

Usage/Remarks

Avoid Recording Information Redundantly

The element <std-doc-meta> was created because of a desire to reduce duplication of metadata information within a standards document. For example, if the abstract(s) (<abstract>) for a standard are the same for all versions of the metadata (inside both <iso-meta> and <reg-meta>, for example), then the <abstract> element can be placed inside <std-doc-meta> and not placed within the ISO or Regional standards body metadata. In the same vein, if a National standards body has its own unique abstract, that <abstract> will be placed inside the National standards body metadata (<nat-meta>).
