Re: Brainstorming data quality needs within the Dataset Usage Vocabulary.

Hi Eric,

This is quite an interesting discussion...

My two cents would be that the following would be in scope for the Quality vocabulary
"Consumers should be able to provide feedback on overall DCAT:Dataset quality"

The rest would be out-of-scope. Maybe from the perspective of the data usage vocabulary it make sense to further qualify the 'raters', in the case they would be also data users.

 From the perspective of quality voc that's just a no-go. We're fighting to get concrete requirements for a framework for representing quality of datasets, we shouldn't embark on getting a framework to represent the quality of people.

Cheers,

Antoine
