Imagine that it was foo:keyword instead of dc:subject and it suddenly makes a lot more sense. How is this in conflict?

Having said that, you could model this as with two tables in SQL. -- Noah Slater <http://bytesexual.org/> "Creativity can be a social contribution, but only in so far as society is free to use the results." - R.
