Dears,
with us it's now the time for reports rather than development.
I'll not be able to follow this discussion the coming week.
Let me try to summarize, what i understand currently from the dc-xml
discussion.
1. In OAi the use of dc:elements with the xml- simple
dataType "string" will (continue to) be required in
the mandatory part of OAi.
It could be, that OAi allows a dataType extension by
the xml:lang attribute.
[In particular no mark-up from W3C's MathML or Ruby will be allowed in
oai-dc records].
2. There are mixed views on (details of) requirements, design and coding
for dcmi supported "plain-xml"-schemes.
Please correct me on mistaken points.
Best,
rs
