Using schema.org Dataset metadata properties

Hi,

In the current metadata document here:

  http://w3c.github.io/csvw/metadata/#common-properties

the spec maps adopts the list of Dublin Core properties for describing tables etc. As ISSUE 6 says, this might not be the right choice: there might be other standard vocabularies that should be used instead or as well.

On the call this week, Dan suggested using schema.org instead, namely the properties on Dataset here:

  http://schema.org/Dataset

The properties there are informed by DCAT which itself was informed by Dublin Core.

Any thoughts?

Jeni
