Subject: OpenDocument Metadata Proposal
Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 09:40:46 -0400

I'm on the OASIS OpenDocument Metadata Subocmmittee, where we've just  
wrapped up work on our proposal for enhanced metadata support in the  
file format:

<http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/24327/ODF-Metadata- 
Proposal.pdf>

A quick summary is that we've adopted RDF as the model for metadata,  
which can be:

1. embedded as RDF/XML in the file package to describe either the  
document, or embedded content.
2. used in an RDFa-like syntax to tag content as triples (where the  
content is the literal object)
3. hooked up to a new generic field (text:meta-field)

We're actually starting the review with the TC today, but if you have  
comments, you'll (unfortunately, I think for IP reasons) need to  
subscribe to this list and send there:

<office-comment-subscribe at lists.oasis-open.org>
