<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Ron,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The divergence of the two date models within ArchivesSpace did come about with the work on the Agents module. While the plan is to eventually move other record types for which it makes sense to the same model (there are some related requests
at <a href="https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-1475">https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-1475</a> and
<a href="https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-380">https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-380</a>), because dates are so complex and because the agents work was underway already, we treated the work on dates associated with agents as a first
step. The motivation for the change was specific to the EAC-CPF standard, though it has broader applicability with EAD as well.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t have a specific timeframe for moving other dates in the application to this model right now. One of our thoughts in staging this date transition was that we wanted to get feedback on the agents dates piece before taking the even
larger step of moving the other record types (and migrating the associated data) to that model. We haven’t received much feedback on the agents yet, possibly because a lot of people haven’t upgraded to a 3.x version yet or possibly because the new date model
meets their needs just fine. We are currently reviewing prioritized projects against capacity in light of staffing changes and I intend to share more information and an updated roadmap soon.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope that helps. If you have other questions, or if anyone here has background or feedback specific to the agents date model, we’d be glad to have them.<o:p></o:p></p>

<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo6">What's the motivation for this difference? Is it standards-based, and does EAC-CPF allow for more detail than EAD?
