Let mew share w/you all what I told Mike -- I think that we should
not only have the DC stuff used on the page, but should tie it to an
ontology in DAML+OIL -- example, we should know that the contributor
has to be a person, the publisher an organization, etc. etc. -- this
would both demonstrate a good use of Dublin Core, and also show how
we can use DAML+OIL to go beyond it -- I also suggest that those
contributors who haven't already created home pages with content in
D+O, can do so -- and that way our document becomes a good starting
place for semantic web tools...
