The Contributor model and RoleType enum in dandischema/models.py already cover most contributor types like Author, DataCurator, and DataCollector. For EMBER-DANDI, there are also contributors who help with data ingestion, embargo coordination, and metadata validation work that doesn’t always fit cleanly into the existing roles.
To better reflect these contributions, I’m proposing a few updates to the contributor roles and related metadata fields, based on notes and comments in the EMBERSet Draft Metadata Google Sheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eQTHz6WSTsT84_FXOs2g53ySDEmSy8LtvFN_bic8xB8/edit?gid=0#gid=0) in the “contributor” (now “role”) row.
