Free-form metadata in Docbook

Question

Hi,

I'm looking to store some metadata in Docbook (V5) XML files. Specifically, links to various resources related to the article in question. I've found the <info> and related elements, but they do not quite fit my purpose.

Is there any way to store free-form metadata in a Docbook file? I really just want key/value pairs stored at the article level.

Thanks,
Kent

The whole set of Dublin Core is allowed in V5. But if it's not inside , you will need to modify DB5 and create a variant, it's not insurmountable and described in Ch5 of The Definitive Guide (http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/ch05.html)
