Thank you for the pointer Marvin. I should perhaps have said that I had searched the documentation and web, and that this was one of first pieces I consulted ;) The trouble is that I want to be able to ensure that not only the DSpace DC Elements and Qualifiers are valid but also the Values -- e.g. date values. I am beginning to wonder if the DSpace bulk uploader does any serious validity checking on the `dublin_core.xml' file at all. Last time I bulk uploaded a decent amount of material I noticed that I could feed in all manner of date issued data. All was accepted and the UI rendering predictably poor. I want to ensure more consistency this time round, hence my request for the `Definitive DSpace DTD or Schema'.
