Grant,
Bug numbers 78 and 102 both discuss GMA1's failure to parse
multivolume holdings information correctly (that is, much volume,
part, and other data present in GLIS is literally not present in
Advance, and it qualifies as a serious problem).
On the buglist, the status is given as "GMA," and we're not sure we
know what this means for us. We know Mike Ridgeway was
notified back in March and that he communicated with David Alexander.
What we do not know is whether that's all official enough. Are we
expected to spec out something like this, to the effect of, "The GMA
should process multivolume holdings information correctly" or can we
assume that such processing will be forthcoming in GMA2?
Thanks,
Stephen
