Our department is thinking we might want to develop a plugin for using a DACS element set for our archival collections in the future. I want to make sure I understand how the plugin would function though. If we were to create such a plugin would it be running parallel to Dublin Core or would it replace Dublin Core? If parallel, would the DACS elements be invisible to OAI-PMH harvesting?

Running parallel. Dublin Core is an indelible part of Omeka.
would the DACS elements be invisible to OAI-PMH harvesting?
By default, yes. But you could map DACS to Dublin Core by hand or automatically using the after_save_item hook. You could also extend the OaiPmhRepository plugin to include DACS.
