For background see: MARC Discussion Paper 99: Metadata, Dublin Core

gopher://marvel.loc.gov:70/00/.listarch/usmarc/dp99.doc
(This was covered in a program at ALA, "From Catalog to
Gateway: URIs, Metadata and the Dublin Core." I know some EAD users
were there; maybe they can provide further comment.)
Also:

> How to create a finding aid once and use it in multiple systems? In
