Could someone tell me whether it is possible to import DDI metadata fields beyond those listed in the document "Metadata Mapping of Cataloging Information Fields: DVN, DDI, DC, and FGDC" or do I need to ensure that our metadata crosswalk from Qualified Dublin Core maps to a field in the "DDI Element - Import" column? We have a few QDC fields which don't map well to the available DDI fields and it would be useful to employ additional DDI Lite (v2.0) stdyDscr fields. On the other hand, if they don't map to anything useful in DVN then there isn't much point.
