We don't know, and we would have to guess, and no guessing.

I know this is not DC spec but it could be used to create ePub spec which is what is important here.
I like this. It doesn't have to be DC spec, it's still valid in an epub document even as a meta tag, and it's also valid XHTML. Any other DC parser would just use the name and content attributes and ignore the scheme since it couldn't recognize it.

This solution seems rather perfect.
