The DCMI Collection Description WG reported in October 2002 that there had been limited interest in the proposal to develop a DC-based application profile for collection-level description.

Since that time, however, the co-chairs have received a number of concrete expressions of interest in this work, and with this support, we propose to relaunch the activity of the group and review/amend the existing proposal with the aim of developing an application profile for collection-level description, applicable to a broad range of collection types.

Some suggested revised milestones are available. The proposal discussed during 2002 is available and the proposal is now presented in the form of an "application profile".
