Tony Hammond of Nature Publishing Group wrote a good article on augmenting
RSS with domain-specific namespaced elements a while back at
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2003/07/23/rssone.html. It shows an example of
embedded Dublin Core and PRISM elements and might provide some inspiration
(there is a useful link, in the comments, to a qualified Dublin Core
representation as well).

I'm only tentatively playing with these sorts of things at the moment, so
I could be wrong, but might it be possible to include this, and all the
other metadata mentioned, using the Dublin Core spec embedded as eRDF or
RDFa within the html? since Dublin Core is an open spec this'd be great for
interoperability, I imagine...


cheers,

Tim
