This Newsletter is published monthly by the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative . Previous workshops have attracted librarians, museum informatics specialists, archivists, digital library researchers, government information providers, publishers, and content specialists from a broad cross-section of sectors and disciplines. Participants are expected to be familiar with Dublin Core basics and should have expertise and interest in advancing the state of Dublin Core standards or deployment . Representatives of other metadata initiatives or standards interested in liaison with DCMI are also encouraged to participate. The addition of the DC Qualifiers enhances the semantic precision of the existing DC Metadata Element Set.
Public comments are welcome.
