[edit] Guidance Notes

Each subject tag must contain one and only one keyword, phrase, or classification. Do not use multiple keywords separated by spaces or other conventions; use separate subject tags instead.
Localisation: Use an xml:lang attribute to provide alternative language versions of a subject tag.
Vocabularies: Use vocabulary encoding schemes to include classification terms using the subject tag. See Extending XCRI-CAP
