[Sigia-l] Dublin Core and meta-tag length

[Whitney Quesenbery]

I have two questions from a client:

1. How prevalent is the Dublin Core in use?
The client is already using DC for their intranet, but is looking for 
figures on how widespread it is for external corporate sites.

2. Is there a maximum number or total length for meta-tags before the 
search engines start ignoring the tags?
We're planning a set of tags to enable the corporate search engine to 
connect multiple "site-lets" and the external SEO folks raised this as a flag.

Thanks.
