The interoperability problem is that:
"when the DC-lib community find searches which cannot be created in BIB2 they have to make their own attribute set, DC-Lib-1 or whatever, which allows for these extra searches."

Can someone explain what is wrong with the following scenario:
BIB2, which is looking very good thanks to the large amount of work put in
by Barb and Lennie (et al.), defines a way of searching bibliographic
data.
The DC-Lib community, when they've decided on their elements, look at BIB2
and find the searches which cannot be created in BIB2 and make their own
attribute set, DC-Lib-1 or whatever, which allows for these extra
searches. Which is what the whole wonderful modular extensible buzzword
compliant attribute architecture is about.
Where's the interoperability problem?
Rob
