Content Model	Disseminator	BDef	Behaviors	BMech
uvaEAD	uvaDefault	uvaDefault	getPreview - returns plain text from DescMeta	uvaDefaultEAD
			getLabel - returns plain text label from DescMeta
			getDescription - returns plain text description from DescMeta
			getFullView(pid)
			getDefaultContent - returns raw xml
	uvaMeta	uvaMeta	getDescMeta - returns raw xml	uvaMeta
			getAdminMeta - returns raw xml
			getDC - returns Dublin Core elements in raw xml
			viewDescMeta(style)
			viewAdminMeta(style)
	uvaEAD	uvaEAD	getLabel - returns xml label	uvaEAD
			getLabelSTX
			getTableView - returns xml table of contents
			getTableViewSTX
			getChunk(id, page, pageNum) - return xml chunk specified by id
			getChunkSTX(id, page, pageNum)
			getDynamicView (pid, behav, refb, id, page, pageNum, query) - returns cocoon app of dynamic view
			getXML - returns raw xml
			getEADHeader - returns raw XML
			viewEADHeader (style)
	uvaOKIEAD	uvaOKI	getAssetDefs(childPid*, parentPid)	uvaOKIEAD
	uvaRelationalGDMS	uvaRelation	getChildDescMeta(childPid, parentPid)	uvaRelationEAD
			getChildDC(childPid, parentPid)
			viewChildDescMeta(childPid, parentPid, style)

Note: getChunk(element) was once described with separate mechanisms dedicated to each of the section categories.

Recommendation: All current EAD datastreams are consistently encoded and can be handled through a single content model and set of disseminators.
