Unfortunately, as there are way too many 'standards', there is not a
'right way' :-)

I use both. Plus after the tagging I also translate all the XMP into
IPTC. I use exiftool, the command is:

    exiftool -@ path/to/xmp2iptc.args  path/to/your/pictures/*

You can modify the file xmp2iptc.args to suit your needs, the syntax
is very simple and it is well commented.

I also recommend a nice piece of software for this kind of things:
exiflow (http://exiflow.org/)

Ciao ciao, happy tagging!
