release of recommended Dublin Core qualifiers



Those interested in the use of Dublin Core may want to read the Dublin
Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI) Recommendation released today on DC
qualifiers.

http://purl.org/dc/documents/rec/dcmes-qualifiers-20000711.htm

A press release on the new Recommendation can also be found at
http://www.zotgroup.com/development/dcmi/dcqualifiers.html

If you want to see an example of how external Resource Description
Framework (RDF) metadata can be associated with a page, by the way, you
can see an example at the bottom of the press release.

A number of search engine products support indexing of metadata elements
including Dublin Core.  The DC site itself lists Ultraseek, Swish-E,
Microsoft's Index Server, Autonomy Knowledge Server, Blue Angel
Technologies MetaStar and Verity Search 97 Information Server.  Murray
Woodman also recently listed on the DC-General list the following
others: AltaVista, Excalibur, and Thunderstone Webinator.
