[governance] Where are we going?

[David Goldstein]

There's also the The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative which describes itself as "an open organization engaged in the development of interoperable online metadata standards that support
a broad range of purposes and business models. DCMI's activities include work on architecture and modeling, discussions and collaborative work in
DCMI Communities and DCMI Task Groups, annual conferences and workshops, standards liaison, and educational efforts to promote widespread
acceptance of metadata standards and practices."

See http://dublincore.org/ for more information.

Cheers
David

I believe that this has already already been done, deployed, and, 
unfortunately, ignored by web users and web content providers alike.

Take a look at "Platform for Internet Content Selection (PICS)" at 
http://www.w3.org/PICS/
