Mikael, Chris, Roland, Andy,
Point well taken. We are currently in the process of identifying
the documents on the DCMI Web site that need updating. I have
already seen that there is a need for minor editorial changes in
several documents, but also (as has been identified here) major
content work to make everything consistent.
Substantial work is being done by the Usage Board to overhaul the
reference descriptions of elements and qualifiers and put them in
a format that is easier to maintain.
We are grateful to Andy for his offer to look at the guideline for
'Recording qualified Dublin Core in HTML meta elements' at
http://dublincore.org/documents/2000/08/15/dcq-html/. We may need
more volunteers from this group to work on some other documents.
Will keep you informed.
Makx.
