Ron Daniel announced the last call release of the PRISM metadata standard.
PRISM, Publishing Requirements for Industry Standard Metadata,
"uses XML + namespaces,
RDF, and the Dublin Core namespace. It adds a new namespace
containing more detailed elements than those from the Dublin
Core. It also adds namespaces for simple representation of
controlled vocabularies and for a simple rights and permissions language."
The last call period for comments ends 29 March 2001.
