Thanks -- I'll get this updated.  

Just as an aside -- one  thing I'll likely be doing soon is putting this file online and making it editable.  That way, I can just include the most current file in the build and folks don't need to let me know when an update is needed.  This is mostly because I don't track changes related to MARC fields so these changes really only when once a year (when I review the entire file) and then ad hoc when users let me know something is out of date.  I'll likely need to facilitate access to editing the file  through the application (that way I  can ensure that the file isn't accidentally/purposefully altered by someone outside of the community), but I've gotten a few of these update notes (generally privately) and its obvious to me that moving the editing of this file down to the community would make the most sense.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] MARC Rules update

Terry -- it looks like an update to the MARC rules file is needed for the 382 field. I got a validation error for two subfields that are defined, but missing from the file:

	382-  $r:  Subfield cannot be defined in this field.
	382-  $t:  Subfield cannot be defined in this field.

Complete 382 rules should be:
382	R	MEDIUM OF PERFORMANCE
ind1	b01	Undefined
ind2	b01	Undefined
subfield	abdenpsv0268	Valid Subfields
a	R	Medium of performance
b	R	Soloist
d	R	Doubling instrument
e	R	Number of ensembles of the same type
n	R	Number of performers of the same medium
p	R	Alternative medium of performance
r	NR	Total number of individuals performing alongside ensembles
s	NR	Total number of performers
t	NR	Total number of ensembles
v	R	Note
0	R	Authority record control number or standard number
2	NR	Source of term
8	R	Field link and sequence number
