Hi Robert, Thanks #2! The IEEE LOM value list for Learning Resource Type includes lecture, so I recommend keeping it in the schemas and adding it to the list of values in the spec.

So the question is - do we add the value "lecture" to the specification as a valid value, or do we list it in the specification as an errata in the DTD/XSD?
