This might be trying to simplify (or complicate) the problem, but 
what about the Dublin Core element set? (See 
http://www.dublincore.org/documents/dces/ for more information). 

This simple schema is quite useful, its "standard", and the 
information can be re-used in other types of processing 
applications, such as RDF metadata extraction or even Topic 
Maps. 

Just an idea ...
