Also, what are the circumstances in which people are using this
metadata? What sort of interface are they expected to be working with,
etc. We have tons of unstructured metadata (see package summaries and
descriptions :-)
Also any sort of structured metadata will be
1. expensive to collect
2. always incomplete
The #1 problem of categorisation systems is not how to exploit metadata
but how to create and maintain it in the first place.
