Back when we started working on this issue, the idea was to take a subset
of the Relators list that was for general applications and define them as
element refinements for CCP. At the same time we went through those and
determined which elements they refined. That wasn't too complicated, since
all of them on the list appropriately refined Creator and Contributor and
as I recall only 1 or 2 refined Publisher. LC was willing to put this
subset up and maintain it.
I'm not sure if this adds anything to the discussion, but I think this is
a way to go. Then I guess I would agree with the statement below.
