DCMI Subelement Working Group

Chair:	Paul Miller
Status:	This working group is currently inactive.
Established:	1997-10
Deactivated:	1998-11-04
Charter:	This working group is examining the use of (optional) subelements to refine the meaning and use of existing Dublin Core elements. This work overlaps that of other groups addressing the generic data model and element-specific requirements, but the subelement group retains a role in devising element-neutral guidelines for when and how subelements might most effectively be used.
