In XHTML 2 we say that there is an 'automatic' mapping between the
title element and dc:title, but this has not been transposed to RDFa,
as yet. The interesting thing here is that we want RDFa to be
'generic', i.e., supporting any XML langauge. But at the same time we
do need some HTML-specific rules, such as mapping non-prefixed
@rel/@rev values, and so on.

At the moment the proposal is to use a pre-processing step, and some
of the required functionality is captured in hGRDDL. This may be the
place to put a mapping between xh:title and dc:title.

Regards,

Mark
