-# Build script
+# Workflow for generating a new version of Darwin Core
+
+![workflow diagram](workflow_diagram.png)
+
+1. Download the CSV file for the terms in the namespace to be modified. The `dwc:` namespace terms are [here](https://github.com/tdwg/rs.tdwg.org/blob/master/terms/terms.csv), `dwciri:` terms are [here](https://github.com/tdwg/rs.tdwg.org/blob/master/iri/iri.csv), `dc:` terms are [here](https://github.com/tdwg/rs.tdwg.org/blob/master/dc-for-dwc/dc-for-dwc.csv), and the `dcterms:` terms are [here](https://github.com/tdwg/rs.tdwg.org/blob/master/dcterms-for-dwc/dcterms-for-dwc.csv).
+2. **Note:** *It is highly recommended that you do not hand-edit the raw CSVs with a text editor. Use Libre Office or Open Office (NOT Excel). They will reliably open, close, and edit the file while preserving and escaping commas, quotes, etc. and also not mess up the UTF-8 encoding if you set them up properly.* Delete the columns that do not serve as input to the system. They are: `document_modified`, `term_isDefinedBy`, `term_created`, `term_modified`, `term_deprecated`, `replaces_term`, `replaces1_term`, and `replaces2_term`. That should leave `term_localName` and all of the columns starting with `label` and onwards to the right.
+3. Delete any rows whose terms are not being modified.
+4. Edit the cells whose values need to be changed.
+5. If a new term is being added, fill in a new row anywhere below the header row.
+6. Special care must be taken if columns are added (i.e. metadata properties are added). This is not for the faint of heart! The new columns must be added to every file used as source data for the various scripts and the column header mapping files also need to be edited. See [this page](for more details). This should should be a rare event. DO NOT ever delete columns! If you want to elimite values for a property, just leave empty strings in all of the cells of that property's column.
+7. Create a new branch (or fork if you don't have push rights) of the [rs.tdwg.org repo](https://github.com/tdwg/rs.tdwg.org). Save your edited CSV file using some notable name in the [process](https://github.com/tdwg/rs.tdwg.org/tree/master/process) directory.
+8. Open the [simplified_process_rs_tdwg_org.ipynb](https://github.com/tdwg/rs.tdwg.org/blob/master/process/simplified_process_rs_tdwg_org.ipynb) Jupyter notebook and follow [these instructions](https://github.com/tdwg/rs.tdwg.org/blob/master/process/process-vocabulary.md#21-setup) to edit the configuration section of the script.
+9. Run the script, paying careful attention to whether particular sections are appropriate for what you are trying to accomplish. NOTE: there are still some kinks to be worked out for the borrowed terms (`dc:` and `dcterms:` namespaces), but changes there should be rare. It is useful to monitor the diffs that are generated as sections of the script are run and make sure that the changes are reasonable. This is easily monitored if you are using the GitHub desktop client.
+10. If there are changes to more than one namespace, repeat all of the previous steps with the second namespace before continuing on.
+11. When you are satisfied that all of the term, term list, vocabulary, and standards metadata changes are sensible, discard the changes made to the Jupyter notebook so that it will remain in it's "example" stage when the branch (or fork) is merged. Alternately, you can download the "example" notebook from GitHub to write over the version that you modified, and commit it to the branch.
+12. As of 2020-08-20, updating rs.tdwg.org document metadata must be done manually. Steve Baskauf knows how to do it and will try to eventually write a script to automate the process. It's best to ask him to do the updating before merging the branch.
+13. Push the branch to GitHub and create a pull request. It is best for someone to review the changes carefully before merging.
+14. Once the branch has been merged the data are available via HTTP to the other scripts that use those data.
+15. Create a branch of the [Darwin Core repo](https://github.com/tdwg/dwc).
+16. Edit the [termlist-header.md](https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/blob/master/build/termlist-header.md) file, changing "Date version issued", the "This version" URL, the version URL in the citation, and the date in the "1 Introduction" to the date used for the new version of Darwin Core. Change the "Previous version" date to the date of the version that is being replaced. Save the file.
+17. Go to the `docs/list/` directory and change the name of the `index.md` file to the date of the version being replaced (e.g. `2020-08-12.md`). Open that file and add a "Replaced by" label and value to the IRI of the new version (see an older version for an example). Save the file.
+18. Run the script [build-termlist.py](https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/blob/master/build/build-termlist.py). Be patient since some steps take a few seconds. When the `Done` message appears, it's finished.
+19. Check the diff for the newly generated `index.md` file in the [docs/list/](https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/tree/master/docs/list) directory and make sure that the changes are appropriate.
+20. Run the [generate_term_versions.py](https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/blob/master/build/generate_term_versions.py) script to generate a new version of [term_versions.csv](https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/blob/master/vocabulary/term_versions.csv). This file serves as the source of data for the build script in the next step. At some point, that script may be modified to eliminate this intermediate step.
+21. Run the [build.py](https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/blob/master/build/build.py) script to build the Quick Reference Guide.
+22. Create a pull request for the new branch.
+23. When the branch has been reviewed carefully, merge the branch. The new pages shuld be live as soon as Jekyll rebuilds them on GitHub.
+24. Term dereferencing to human and machine readable representations is handled by a server managed by GBIF. Ask Matt Blissett to reload the data from the `rs.tdwg.org` repo into the server (he has a script to do it.). Because dereferencing of current terms to human-readable web pages is handled by a redirect, there won't be any noticeable difference whether the data are reloaded in this step or not. But dereferencing the term versions, or dereferencing to acquire machine readable metadata will not reflect the new changes until the server is reloaded.

+
+
+## 1 Introduction (Informative)
+
+This document contains terms that are part of the most recent version of the Darwin Core vocabulary (http://rs.tdwg.org/version/dwc/2020-08-12).
+
+This document includes terms in four namespaces that contain recommended terms: `dwc:`, `dwciri:`, `dc:`, and `dcterms:`. However, some terms in these namespaces are deprecated and should no longer be used. Deprecation is noted in the term metadata. Namespaces that contain only deprecated terms are not included in this document, but metadata about those terms can be retrieved by dereferencing their IRIs.
+
+For a simplified list that contains only the currently recommended terms, see the [Darwin Core Quick Reference Guide](../terms/).
+
+### 1.1 Status of the content of this document
+
+Sections 1 and 3 are non-normative.
+
+Section 2 is normative.
+
+In Section 4, the values of the `Term IRI` and `Definition` are normative. The values of `Term Name` are non-normative, although one can expect that the namespace abbreviation prefix is one commonly used for the term namespace. `Label` and the values of all other properties (such as `Examples` and `Notes`) are non-normative.
+
+### 1.2 RFC 2119 key words
+The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC 2119](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2119).
+
+### 1.3 Namespace abbreviations
+
+The following namespace abbreviations are used in this document:
+
+| abbreviation | IRI |
+| --- | --- |
+| dwc: | http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/ |
+| dwciri: | http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/iri/ |
+| dc: | http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/ |
+| dcterms: | http://purl.org/dc/terms/ |
+
+## 2 Use of Terms
+
+Due to the requirements of [Section 1.4.3 of the Darwin Core RDF Guide](../rdf/#143-use-of-darwin-core-terms-in-rdf-normative), terms in the `dwciri:` namespace MUST be used with IRI values. Terms in the `dwc:` and `dc:` namespaces are generally expected to have string literal values. Values for terms in the `dcterms:` namespace will depend on the details of the term. See [Section 3 of the Darwin Core RDF Guide](../rdf/#3-term-reference-normative) for details.

+
+
+ Definition |
+ The ratio of the area of the footprint (footprintWKT) to the area of the true (original, or most specific) spatial representation of the Location. Legal values are 0, greater than or equal to 1, or undefined. A value of 1 is an exact match or 100% overlap. A value of 0 should be used if the given footprint does not completely contain the original representation. The footprintSpatialFit is undefined (and should be left blank) if the original representation is a point and the given georeference is not that same point. If both the original and the given georeference are the same point, the footprintSpatialFit is 1. |

Legal values are 0, greater than or equal to 1, or undefined. A value of 1 is an exact match or 100% overlap. A value of 0 should be used if the given point-radius does not completely contain the original representation. The pointRadiusSpatialFit is undefined (and should be left blank) if the original representation is a point without uncertainty and the given georeference is not that same point (without uncertainty). If both the original and the given georeference are the same point, the pointRadiusSpatialFit is 1. |

+This document contains terms that are part of the most recent version of the Darwin Core vocabulary (http://rs.tdwg.org/version/dwc/2020-08-20).
This document includes terms in four namespaces that contain recommended terms: `dwc:`, `dwciri:`, `dc:`, and `dcterms:`. However, some terms in these namespaces are deprecated and should no longer be used. Deprecation is noted in the term metadata. Namespaces that contain only deprecated terms are not included in this document, but metadata about those terms can be retrieved by dereferencing their IRIs.
