Whew! Just took a look at www.dublincore.org and it looks like I need
a Dublincore-101 course or the short version or something. :-)

So explain a bit more. I was thinking of a "simple" mapping from MARC
to id3v2 frames. Are you suggesting MARC to DC to id3v2? And how does
Zebra fit in here? (Sorry if these are simple questions?)
