Hello!
We have a good number of people on this list but not a lot of action,
it seems. There is a group working on tags and starting to think
about how DC metadata can take advantage of the tagging efforts - and
we can look forward to hearing from them at the next conference.
I'd like to encourage others to think about the topic - there is so
much that needs to be investigated and so many good ideas, I am sure
we can have a really fruitful session in Singapore - and remind you
that we can have lots of links and conversations online too! If you
have some questions about tags and DC, why not post them to this list
now so we can get some discussion going and then I will try to ensure
the conference committee can set aside a session for us to have some
lively presentations on the topic - and further discussion.
You can also post to the wiki ... http://dublincore.org/taggingwiki/
There's a special page for discussion topics ... http://
dublincore.org/taggingwiki/DiscussionIssues and there's a special
page for people to describe their tagging practices - to help others
think about what people are doing and thinking when they tag - please
contribute to this page, it can be very helpful to others! ....
