I don't see how Creator.Name adds to plain Creator? The default value is
a name anyway isn't it?
I think the proposals from the sub-element working group on this are
pretty simple and could be incorporated into 'DC-Simple':
a. To distinguish corporate names from personal names
Proposals are:
(from Paul's subelement wg summary)
DC.Creator.PersonalName
DC.Creator.CorporateName
OR
(from Roland.Schwaenzl)
DC.Creator.Person.Name
DC.Creator.Corporate.Name
It seems to me as the default for this element is name then one might
argue for:
DC.Creator.Person
DC.Creator.Corporate
b. To distinguish addresses
(such as e-mail, URLs of home pages)
If we accept distinction between personal/corporate names then this
would be carried through and proposals follow the above structure:
DC.Creator.PersonalName.Address
or
DC.Creator.Person.Address
