[Gramps-devel] Source model

[Don A. <dal...@us...>]

Currently, GRAMPS uses the GEDCOM model for sources. This means that
there is a base source that contains general information. Each time a
source is attached to an item, a source reference is created. The source
reference links to the base source, and provides specific information,
such as page number, text, etc.

For example, a source might be "The Smith Family" book. A source
reference attached to a person's birth, would indicate the source as
being "The Smith Family" book, and add information such as "page 27" and
a quote from the book.

Is the the correct model for GRAMPS to use?
