Dear list members,

Thanks to your help, we could make our DDI xml sample file. But we have
some small problems.

We planned to use <biblCit> 2.1.7 as an automatically generated field from
producer, date, title and similar fields. But it isn't repeatable, though
the author responsibility or producer is. It seems to me completely
illogical. Is there any way to repeat <biblCit> 2.1.7?

The ISO date format is the other problem. Firstly, lots of our old "study
descriptions" are not very standard, the date fields (contain alphabetical
caracters, mention only the year, etc.). Please tell me whether it is a
correct solution to transform the incomplete date records to YYYY-00-00
format, simulate month and day with two zeroes.

In <varQnty> 3.1.4.2 element an ID parameter could be used. Can we use any
value for this? It would be easy to solve our problem if we could use
an ID="non-embargo" in <varQnty> 3.1.4.2 element.

best regards,
csaba
