http://dublincore.org/documents/2002/04/14/dcq-rdf-xml/#DCQS is still a
proposed recommendation. The RDF schema found at
http://dublincore.org/2001/08/14/dcq# is the last representation of DC terms
in RDFS. Note that it is not an approved document. TypeScheme is not a DC
term or qualifier, but merely a convenience class for grouping other
classes. I'm not sure why it is not in the 08/14 version of the RDFS.
Possibly an oversight.

See http://dublincore.org/documents/2001/10/26/dcmi-namespace/

Yes, and also for new terms.

It is intended to be updated.

I'm not sure I understand this question?

All approved schemas are at: http://dublincore.org/schemas/. This is a
pretty short list at present, but is expected to grow. Note that there are
no RDF schemas that have been approved. Until there are I suggest using the
schemas that the namespaces resolve to.
Hope this helps.

Harry
