Thanks very much Claudia. There's no excuse for not gathering something in
the documentation on my part.
However, I didn't get the following: Since the dublin_core.xml file also
needs to be in there, would I leave it empty, i.e., just the outer tags and
no fields specified, or would I have to fill it in with all the fields that
I have in common with the DC metadata?
Thanks and best regards
