Graves: getting into the metadata in the HTML headers
I've started work on elaborating the currently-sparse HTML head content for the Graves HTML pages. The first thing I learned was that, in order to use DC and DCTERMS values in meta tags appropriately, I needed an HTML link element with an appropriate @rel; but that was invalid according to VNU. Upgrading VNU solved that, but the new VNU requires Java 8, which wasn't available on Jenkins; I had to add it to Jinks through a PPA. The new VNU also complains about the meta encoding tag in Mariage, so I've removed that. I'm currently running builds on three Endings projects and Landscapes to see whether the Java 8 and VNU upgrade has worked OK, or whether they need more tweaks.
In the meantime, I have done a bit of work on the Graves headers, and they're well on the way. I need to add substantial amounts of metadata in the headers to allow eXist and Solr to filter by document type. I've also contacted LW at the library to see if I can go and look at the MS to discover what happened to the missing page-images for 1938-05-11 and 1938-05-23, which are missing from our set, although transcribed.
