Keith Gilbertson commented on DS-534:
-------------------------------------

They are intended to be used together.  

Any values for metadata from the default schema "dc" go in the dublin_core.xml 
file.  Metadata from other schema in the registry go into the 
metadata_[prefix].xml files, but each of those files must also have the correct 
schema specified in the xml.  Example:  The metadata_dwc file would have the 
line <dublin_core schema="dwc"> (instead of the usual <dublin_core>) , and is 
to be used for metadata values for fields from a schema called dwc in the 
registry.  The dwc schema doesn't ship with DSpace - the admins will have 
needed to add it first.


If the schema isn't specified inside the metadata_[prefix].xml files with 
(<dublin_core schema="[prefix]">, DSpace will assume that the metadata fields 
come from the "dc" schema, even with the proper filename.
