<DIV style="MARGIN: 0px; FONT: 12px Helvetica">From the transmission
wiki: A metadata standard for online video will ensure a common definitions
for basic information such as title, date, author and language and (free) tags.
This standard is to be used in video upload forms and video feeds of data coming
from each participating site. The standard will allow creation of search and
importation tools for (open source) Content Management Systems (CMS) like
Drupal, Wordpress, Plone/Plumi etc to easily locate video data in other video
databases that use the standard.</DIV>
