Demo script - IMS metadata examples

Hi team,

as I mentioned at the telecon, Mick has now passed the demoscript to me to
work on. Originally the script used Leonardo Da Vinci as an example context,
but I have decided to change it to Frank Lloyd Wright. This is because he is
mentioned in one of the VRA core spec examples, which halves the amount of
example metadata I need to manufacture. John and I have created some IMS
metadata for two resources on Frank Lloyd Wright - there are many potential
Learning Objects on this and related subjects on the Web: 

Example 1
http://www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/cas/fnart/fa267/FLW.html

and

Example 2
http://www.americaslibrary.gov/cgi-bin/page.cgi/aa/writers/wright

I'd be interested in any feedback on the metadata, any suggestions
improvements etc? For brevity I've written the metadata in attribute value
pair form?
