Missing metadata in new resources AGAIN: Please Logos, can you fix this?
I'm sorry to whinge, but the NIBC commentary set that came through on Saturday has missing metadata (series information is missing for the final two volumes). I'm glad the rest of the metadata is accurate, but one of the best features of Logos 4 - dynamic collections - don't work if there's bad metadata.
This happened with the Calvin Commentaries, the Tyndale Commentary series, and the new volumes in the New American Commentary, which I'm glad were fixed quickly. But it's becoming a habit, and there's still dozens of resources with bad metadata. We didn't care in Logos 3, but we do care in Logos 4 because of the great new features that use it.
So please, Logos, fix the metadata problems, and add metadata checking to your Quality Assurance procedures.
Thank you.

Seems odd, you would have thought checking metadata was there would be part of the internal QA before the final compile button was prressed..
I guess mistakes happen, but this seems like a flaw in the process...
I also would be frustrated by this

Yes, this is very frustrating. Please follow a checklist when releasing new resources, so that simple things like this won't keep getting missed.
