Introduction
DCLite4G is an effort to
- establish a common information model with mappings to well known formats for geospatial metadata
- provide a vocabulary/recommendations for spatial extensions to Dublin Core
- support simple interfaces for collecting and querying geospatial metadata

- update docs on Geodata Metadata Model
- draw some UML to appease people?
