Introduction 66 [RFC2731] defines "Encoding Dublin Core Metadata in HTML". Newer 67 specifications published by the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative [1] 68 (DCMI), in particular "Expressing Dublin Core metadata using HTML/ 69 XHTML meta and link elements" (DC-HTML, 70 ), have obsoleted this 71 work. 73 Note: Implementers of RFC 2731 should note that DC-HTML introduces 74 a new requirement with respect to the use of the "head" element's 75 "profile" attribute. 77 2. Recommendation to Reclassify RFC 2731 79 This document recommends that the IESG reclassify [RFC2731] as 80 Historic. 82 3.
