Hi,
On the DocBook side, the following reference to a page in the DocBook 4.2
specification lists the DocBook equivalents for Dublin Core metadata
elements:
http://www.docbook.org/specs/cs-docbook-docbook-4.2.html#d0e652
If you also need to use Dublin Core qualifiers, then there are attributes on
those elements that cover most of the qualifiers listed in the original
Dublin Core Qualifiers document.
You'd have to investigate how the epub stylesheet handles these.
