    [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2536?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=18045#action_18045 ] 

Michael Stahl  commented on OFFICE-2536:
----------------------------------------

The commenter wants more/all Dublin Core elements added to the meta.xml.

Actually this is not necessary in order to use the Dublin Core elements on ODF documents;
these Dublin Core properties can simply be used in statements in RDF/XML files.
The "foreign elements" section 21.1 only talks about elements in ODF XML files, not RDF/XML files, so the fact that ODF defines some XML elements in the Dublin Core namespace is not a problem here.

Now that we have the new RDF metadata framework, the meta.xml file is generally regarded as "legacy", and it would probably not be a good idea to further extend its functionality at this point.
