[osis-core] <header>

[Patrick Durusau]

Harry,

In terms of the rather simple header we have in OSIS I would put 
editorial practices in the revisionDesc element. It is the only one we 
add to the Dublin Core set  and is the equivalent of the revisionDesc 
element of the TEI header. I think we can use "revision" broadly enough 
to cover editorial practices since production of an electronic version 
of a text is not a simple reproduction of the printed version in 
electronic form.

Comments anyone?

Patrick
