So, would the format for this be...?

    <dcterms:modified>2005-12-01</dcterms:modified>

As one might expect, the output is very customizable.  At the moment,

    $DublinCoreElements['dc:rights'] = 'Creative Commons License';

I'm still working out the syntax/data structure for specifying 
attributes such as rdf:resource.
