As far as I can see, the goal is to make the best possible
use of these existing ontologies / metadata standards. So it
is not about re-inventing the wheel, but about putting the
fragmentary solutions that have been created in a multitude
of separate projects together. Some of it might be re-used
directly, some of it might need to be modified a bit, and
some might need to be added from scratch.
This is also discussed in one of the discussion threads [1]
on their Google group.
