Ricardo, Yes, you just need to store the metadata as datastreams on the Fedora object. Our approach has been to use a separate datastream for each metadata type/schema: MODS, MIX, LOM, Darwin Core, etc. We have a dissemination for the object that wraps all of those metadata packages together into a single METS file, with a METS <dmdSec> for each descriptive metadata datastream.
Although we have yet not implemented the OAI service on our Fedora repository, our plan is to use our MODS data as the basis for OAI-PMH rather than the DC datastream, transforming MODS to unqualified DC along the way. That way, we don't have to worry about synchronizing separate MODS and DC versions of the same metadata.
