[DCRM-L] cataloging early manuscripts

[Laurence S. Creider]

As someone who worked with Gregory on AMREMM, I am very happy to hear this
news.  The last I heard, AMREMM is supposed to be incorporated at some
point into the DCRM suite and will be RDA-ified, but I would not hold my
breath.  Finding the required combination of expertise may not be easy.
