Subject: Draft update to the DCMI namespace policy revised
Prior to DC-2005 in Madrid I announced a draft update to the DCMI
namespace policy.
I've since revised this document slightly to correct the definition of
'term name' and add a definition for 'term label'. A new version of the
draft update has been added to the architecture Wiki at
http://dublincore.org/architecturewiki/NamespacePolicy
During the Architecture WG f2f meeting in Madrid, we discussed the
possibility of adding the 15 DCMES terms to the DCTERMS namespace (in
addition to them being in the existing DCMES namespace). This would
mean that many DC users would only need to use a single DCTERMS
namespace. However, as far as I recall, there was no clear agreement
about whether this should be done or not.
Such a change, if we decided in favour of making it, would require
further changes to the namespace policy.
Comments are welcome, either on the wording of the draft update to the
policy or on the issue above.
