2. Experiences & questions A.Some elements have a fixed value for all interviews. Can we already fix this value in the profile? B.When entering the meta data values: can you leave elements in a component empty? Even if you have specified that the element should occur at least once. C.In our workspace components are not hierarchically ordered, but they are all in line under each other. However in the public space we see a hierarchy in the registered examples. How come? D.Elements in ISOcat often are just names to which you can add a string as value. This gives a lot of freedom and possibilities to divert from the original meaning. Should you introduce a new category as soon as you think it differs from the existing element? E.Can Arbil import metadata values from import files and put these into metadata file for individual interviews INTER-VIEWs CLST, Nijmegen,
