Andreas,

Where we will store XMP schema from Adobe, M$ etc...?

Look ExifTool database for details :
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/XMP.html

This is the job to Exiv2 or a high level interface as libkexiv2 ?

I this can be in Exiv2 as IPTC or EXIF schema.

Note : if i remember, Adobe SDK do not contains XMP schema.

Gilles
