dbietila is working on a spec for an updated Marc-to-Dublin-Core transform for the social scientists maps: this should override the base Marc-to-DC transform as little as possible.

DC fields that appear in linked data triples will be updated after this spec is complete. Questions for specific DC fields are included below:

dc:creator

As per dbietila, creator should include alpha subfields from Marc 100, 110, and 111. The base transform currently includes a line to bring in 245c as well. Should this stay, or should it be removed?

dc:description

The dc:description field is spec'ed out differently in different places. In the base MARC-to-DC transform, and in the maps-specific transform, should every 5xx$a-$z field and subfield be concatenated into a single dc:description element? (Alternatively, should each 5xx produce an individual dc:description? Or should just the 500 produce a dc:description?)
