For a while, it has been recognized that the EML schema should be developed
independently from the xsl stylesheets. For the March release of
EML/Metacat/Morpho, the following tag was created for these:
RELEASE_EML_UTILS_1_0_0_RC1
default.css
styles/*xsl
eml201to210.xsl
ascii-treeview.xsl
branding.js
default.js

This tag is probably adequate for Metacat and Morpho
In addition to the xsl stylesheets for displaying html, eml/styles/ includes
subdirectories for converting between different versions of EML and between EML
and other XML, like nbii and esri. So the structure of Utilities needs to be
decided that can hold various material. One possible structure for utilities
could be:
eml/utilities
eml/utilities/display
eml/utilities/display/styles
eml/utilities/conversions
eml/utilities/conversions/beta6toeml2
eml/utilities/conversions/eml20toeml210
