[DCRM-L] OCLC: Incorporating RDA practices into WorldCat

[Young, Stephen]

I for one would not want records encoded "bdrb" or "dcrmb" exempt from massaging that would change access points into newly authorized RDA forms after Mar. 31, 2013.

Thanks, Will; I hadn't seen it (and notice it's too late for comments).

Given that OCLC is contemplating making global changes based on RDA provisions, it is all the more necessary for records encoded 'bdrb', 'dcrb', or 'dcrm' be exempted from such database massages.
