Hi folks,
The International Press Telecommunications Council (IPTC) is
interested in using DC for our new generation of standards. These
standards will employ the News Metadata Framework, described in the
News Metadata Framework Requirements specification, available at:
http://www.iptc.org/dev/
Our plan is to use a different syntax from any of those described on
the DC Web site. This syntax will employ QNames in attribute values
and is related to the work being done in the W3C towards XHTML 2.0.
How do we get an authoritative statement of whether it is OK to use
the acronym "DC" and the DC namespace if we are employing the DC
semantics but not one of the DC-approved syntaxes?
Many thanks,
Misha Wolf
Standards Manager, Reuters
Chair, IPTC News Metadata Framework WG
