Regarding multiple schemata I found an answer: It is not documented in the docs. But in ItemImport.java I found the way to use multiple schemata:
1.) Besides the dublin_core.xml every schema needs an own XML-file with the same syntax, named 'metadata_<namespace-shortcut>.xml'; e.g. 'metadata_marc.xml'. 2.) Set the 'schema'-attribute of the <dublin_core>-tag accordingly; e.g. <dublin_core schema="marc"> 3.) As far as I see should occur other tags then <dcvalue> only in 1 XML-File (preferably dublin_core.xml, if any). Attention: this is not tested - only derived from reading the code of ItemImport.java. I will report success or corrections.
