Hello,
I was intrigued by Dublin Core's foray into educational metadata.
TeleEducation NB has been following this area with great interest, and to
date has found nothing very concrete to latch onto. The IMS Project requires
a stiff membership fee and is still at the prototype stage. The IEEE
Learning Object Metadata is, as I understand it, pretty much the same thing
as IMS (Tom Wason has authored both the IMS and the IEEE specs).
May I ask the organizers of this listserv how they intend to distinguish
this effort from these preceding ones?
