Hi Alan, this is the principle behind Dublin Core, which the DSpace metadata schema is generally based on. The second part from the left (element) is less specific, while the third one (qualifier) is more specific. Since DNS and LDAP use the same principle, I don't really see how you came up with the first one. If that's based on "www" being the same value in the third part from the left, there's no real reason for that. A web server FQDN doesn't really have to start with "www" (and arguably shouldn't, see e.g. no-www.org for reasons), so I see this particular convention more as a coincidence than a rule. Just to make sure, can you give a specific example of such metadata in your repository?
