Jeffrey Trimble updated DS-433:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
DSpace's current implementation of Dublin Core was a subset or simplified 
version of the Dublin Core standard created by OCLC.  Since the first release 
of DSpace, Dublin Core has undergone major revisions.  DC version 1.1 was 
implemented in 2007 with 15 base elements a subset of the larger DCMI.  Some 
users  are currently misusing the DC standards, or lack knowledge how to use it 
properly due to the age of the current element set and the descriptions 
contained therein.

I recommend that the DSpace Developers look at using the full implementation of 
DCMI for the next major release after 1.6.  Additionally tools will need to be 
provided
for conversion of existing DC Metadata Schema.  

Also, it would be advantageous to build into the software a validation of DC 
elements in a stricter sense than is now being used.
