Dear VADs

We (DC.Type Working Group) need your help in refining two (draft) linked
proposals to the Dublin Core Usage Board for separating Still Image and
Moving Image in the DC.Type encoding scheme. These proposals are to be
finalised by mid April so that they can be submitted on the 30th April.

Please note that these are drafts and that the supporter list is incomplete.

Moving Image Proposal:

Still Image Proposal:
http://www.acmi.net.au/dctypeproposal/docs/StillImage_2.html

Apart from your general refinements and corrections, important questions
that we need you to consider are:

1. Do you know of any more related non-DCMI terms for 'moving image'
and 'still image' that we can add to the list?

2. Can you suggest any other still image or moving image communities of
interest that we might ask for comment?

3. Would you be prepared to support these proposals?

With advance thanks for your valuable input. Apologies for any cross
posting.

Simon
