Dear Harry,
First i worry about the RDF:
Certainly title, creator should not form subClasses of the Element class.
An Element class should be a subClass of rdf:Property. Title would be an instance of this subClass and not
a subClass by itself.
As it is by now one could instantiate it again (use it as a typed node)
- creating lots of false statements, as by transitivity one could create tons of dc elements.
-------------------
Second:
In can't see, why a registry requires to change content of the actual DC namespaces.
I agree with Eric about this.
Their content has to be fixed. They will be needed and used by other applications.
They form the machine understandable reference. As such they should become a part of the recommendations.
Why a namespace aware RDF application would need to retrieve all registry information?
Additional information needed by the registry can reside wherever you want.
cheers
