DCMES 1.1 XML Schema XML Schema for http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/ namespace Created 2002-07-12 Created by Tim Cole (t-cole3@uiuc.edu) Tom Habing (thabing@uiuc.edu) Jane Hunter (jane@dstc.edu.au) Pete Johnston (p.johnston@ukoln.ac.uk), Carl Lagoze (lagoze@cs.cornell.edu) This schema declares XML elements for the 15 DC elements from the http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/ namespace. It defines a complexType SimpleLiteral which permits mixed content and makes the xml:lang attribute available. It disallows child elements by use of minOcccurs/maxOccurs. However, this complexType does permit the derivation of other complexTypes which would permit child elements. The default type for all elements is dc:SimpleLiteral. This is the default type for all of the DC elements. It permits text content only with optional xml:lang attribute. Text is allowed because mixed="true", but the only sub-element is an rdf:Bag. This complexType allows for restriction or extension permitting child elements. This group is included as a convenience for schema authors who need to refer to all the elements in the http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/ namespace.
