You can create a crosswalk for transforming one metadata format to
another. These crosswalks can be used during ingest or dissemination.
I don't have much experience with using crosswalks with package
import/export (where you may have to write some Java code), but I know
it's easy enough to do the transformation between XML-based formats
using the new OAI in DSpace 3.0, where the crosswalk is an XSL
template (OAI crosswalks are for dissemination only). I'd go for it.
