titleRole of the TC
The purpose of the Technical Committee is to model, render, maintain, and update the DDI specifications to meet community needs and align with Alliance strategic goals. The TC receives input from substantive working groups of the Scientific Board, DDI users and developers, and other interested parties. This includes the development of conceptual models, implementation of models in various technical forms, monitoring the metadata landscape and related developments, and initiate and plan possible future directions for the standard.

titleDDI 4 Prototype Preparation

TC has begun reviewing the DDI 4 Prototype prior to sending it out for public review. The structure of the model has been frozen in terms of structural changes by anyone other than the TC. Changes should be minimal. To assist those working on the RDF vocabulary and making examples, we have created a page providing information on any changes made to the model. TC Prototype Change Log
