Since the format changed significantly from ml3 I think it would be a
good time to think about this.
I like Dublin Core, too, and I'm generally for using it, however there
are a few things to consider:
 * There are a few DC related rfc. However they seem to be
"Informational". I don't know how this would affect metalink
standardization.
 * Should there be a lot of DC elements that generators should use (as
opposed to other elements). How would we map the current set of
elements to DC elements?
 * Can all of the current elements be easily mapped? Which elements
must stay?
