The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DMCI) and the Friend of a Friend Project (FOAF) have drafted an agreement creating "an opportunity for better integrating their vocabularies with alignments -- mutually declared mappings between semantically overlapping terms." It's an odd sort of agreement, consisting mostly of clauses reassuring DMCI that FOAF won't disappear, and allowing DMCI to take over if it does (I guess the same sort of fear did not exist in the reverse direction).
