The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI) is a consensus building organization that has relationships with many standards activities. A number of people in the DCMI are active in the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) (DC is the prototype application that drove the development of the Resource Description Framework, or RDF in the W3C). Our own standardization activities take place in the IETF (RFC 2413 is reference description of the initial version of the Dublin Core), and there are currently formal DC standardization activities underway in CEN (the European Information Industry Standardization Forum) and in NISO (the North American Information Standardization Organization) and the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers).
