MIT OpenCourseWare using the http://www.imsglobal.org/content/packaging/index.html
IMS Content Packages to .ZIP up their files for submission to DSpace.
The IMS-CP has in turn a manifest file:

Please Note This Detail: At www.dspace.org/ (and at ocw.mit.edu/) we have adopted a perhaps not always seen practice (which we regard as an improvement), of placing the Namespace UI beneath a subdirectory off the server root called '/xmlns/', while the corresponding XML Schema document lives beneath a sibling subdirectory (also off the server root) called '/xsd/'.
