Hi folks,

I'm working on a project which intends to harvest metadata using a non-dublin 
core schema (entitled "LIDO". This schema is quite involved- the XML is nested 
into chunks of fields; here's a typical "wrap" of which there are many within 
the overall schema.

<lido:objectMeasurementWrap>
        <lido:objectMeasurementSet> 
                <lido:displayObjectMeasurements> Total length: 2250 mm - 
Keyboard width: 815 mm                         
</lido:displayObjectMeasurements> 
                <lido:objectMeasurements> 
                        <lido:measurementsSet lido:unit="mm" lido:type="Total 
length" lido:value="2250">                        </lido:measurementsSet> 
                        <lido:measurementsSet lido:unit="mm" 
lido:type="Keyboard width" lido:value="815">                       
</lido:measurementsSet> 
                </lido:objectMeasurements> 
        </lido:objectMeasurementSet> 
</lido:objectMeasurementWrap>

I could easily create a schema called LIDO in Dspace which just lists the 
individual fields, but the harvester will want to pick up these "wraps" and 
"sets" (typical getRecord request as agreed by the harvester: " 
http://www.aMuseum.org/cgi-bin/oai/verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=lido&identifier=record
 1 identifier"). 

Is there any way to create a complex schema in dspace other than the metadata 
registry on the front end, or is there a facility to generated nested schemas 
within the metadata registry which I don't know about?

I can attach the full schema if anyone would like to see it!

Thanks again
Scott
