Thought the following might be of interest to some; We have recently released some command line tools for simplifying the process of converting a database such as Microsoft Access or MySQL into the Dublin Core format.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dcmetatoolkit/ The tool is currently a command line script and is targeted at *nix users but could possibly be used by Windows users using the Cygwin environment. This is an open source project so feel free to change and enhance the software. We are also open to any feature requests as we have just started this project and would really like to create an overall solution. We've also only just started documenting the system so it may not initially be easy to understand or to get working but please bear with it. We've successfully used this to import data into the Royal Naval Museum's DSpace installation which consists of about 10,000 to 11,000 records.
