I do want to be able to indicate more specific roles than creator,
contributor and publisher - but I don't think a qualifier called 'role' is
the correct way to do it! The 'correct' way is to propose a whole set of
element qualifiers called
Illustrator
Author
Artist
...
etc.

Andy - The two solutions seem identical from a philosophical standpoint ...
The Role qualifier refines the semantics of agent, and could be used or
ignored during resource discovery, just as a group of actual qualifiers
would. It seems like it comes down to implementation issues.
I must confess, given that they seem equivalent, the Role qualifier feels
right to me.
What am I missing?
Thanks -
