This works well. Reasons; structured metadata requires an understanding and
application of web standards, classification systems, records management,
content management, search engine configuration capabilities, assets
management, how information is created and used etc. etc. etc. Wrapping a
metadata strategy/structure around these things is building an information
architecture. From my perspective it the equivalent of a well designed
basement. If it's not done right you have a house of cards.
