Purpose and Scope
The Dublin Core Metadata Element Set is a standard for cross-domain resource description. As in Internet RFC 3986, Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax, this specification does not limit the scope of what might be a resource.
The elements described in this standard are typically used in the context of an application profile which constrains or specifies their use in accordance with local or community-based requirements and policies. The specification of such implementation detail is outside the scope of this standard.
