Has anyone actually *used* the Contributor element yet? In trying to
create examples of its use for the RDF working group, I've just noticed
that trying to define the role of a contributor is a bit awkward.
The "scheme" qualifer could be used to say
<contributor scheme="illustrator">Chris Smith</creator>
except that it should really be used for things like "AACR2" which
defines a whole bunch of potential types of contributors. We used to
have the "role" qualifier to handle exactly this problem, but that
got thrown out a long time ago.
Recommendations?
