"PICS 1.x Changes to support digital libraries (& signatures)"

I have a growing interest in Web history, and periodically stumble
across interesting old docs from the '90s.

Here's today's: http://www.w3.org/PICS/970113/DigiLib/pics970113.htm

It introduces some requirements from the Dublin Core community to
W3C's PICS effort. This PICS-NG was later rebranded 'RDF'.

I found this after reading the nice writeup at
http://www.libraryjournal.com/lj/home/891826-264/how_the_w3c_has_come.html.csp
and dug for evidence that W3C has always loved linked library data.

Copying Eric Miller and Ralph Swick, who are old enough to remember
when SPARQL servers were called "label Bureau"...

cheers,

Dan
