Working Groups

Dublin Core working groups are organized around specific problem domains. Working groups are formed and dissolved as dictated by the work at hand and the availability of expertise to accomplish such work.

Working groups have chairs and co-chairs who also serve as members of the Dublin Core Advisory Committee. Participation is open to interested members of the community with the time and expertise relevant to the domain of the group. Individual interested in joining a working group may do so by sending an email message indicating their interest and background to the chair of the working group.

Working groups and Special Interest groups conduct business via email, at Dublin Core Workshops, and at formal group meetings. Each Working Group will post its intermediate results (called Draft Documents) on the appropriate Working Group Web space. Working drafts will be labeled as such. These documents are DRAFT and have not been endorsed the the Dublin Core Community.
