Subject: Re: [docbook] Qualified Dublin Core
As I was trying to say, the attributes on the new elements cover most of the qualifiers listed in the original Dublin Core Qualifiers document. For example: <bibliorelation class="isbn" type="replaces">1-57870-080-9</bibliorelation> This matches the "Relation" Dublin Core element with the "Replaces" qualifier as described in the document. If you need to extend further, you could use type="othertype" and othertype="my own type". If this isn't what you are looking for, perhaps you could give an example.
