Hi Mike,

You got it.

Yes - I like this clean and simple approach.  It really hardly needs
ABNF (though I could write a closed one for the 15 keywords in
about 20 minutes).

One LAST question - do we want to stack these critters
(keyword=value;keyword=value), so that each
document-dc-metadata value is one *set* of related metadata
(creator, date, etc.)?

I vote no - keep it simple - it's just a flat list - 2 creators is 2 creator
array values.

Cheers,
- Ira
