DCMI launches donations program

DCMI has created a Donations Program to support specific DCMI activities. Descriptions of donation categories are available at http://dublincore.org/support/. In addition to donations targeting support for DCMI International Conference fellowships to defray travel and accommodations costs for select fellows, the Program includes support for current DCMI Work Themes: "Platform-independent Application Profiles", 'Mapping Diverse Vocabularies" and "Sustainable Vocabularies". Work theme donations will be used primarily to support stipends to community members who take on editorial responsibilities for specific work themes. In addition, work theme donations provide community members with the means to "vote" regarding which theme or themes are most important to them.
