CRLF- Thomas Bandholtz looks at topics maps as a means of linking metadata.
CRLF- Gerhard Budin discusses e-learning metadata and learning outcomes in a multicultural perspective.
CRLF- Gerry Cunningham describes UNEP.net, an open metadata discovery framework.
CRLF- Sam Chance, discussing the Extended Metadata Registry (XMDR), offers a nice Observe-Orient-Decide-Act framework (slide 5) and a great metadata complexity diagram (slide 6)
