[DCAT] Notes from meeting 2018-03-14 (Pi-day)

Attendance at the meeting this week was small, partly due to timezone mayhem and inconsistency.
So we threw away the proposed agenda and discussed team strategy instead - see
https://www.w3.org/2018/03/14-dxwgdcat-minutes

Following up from the meeting I've

(a)    Done an initial triage of the issue list, particularly looking for issues that can likely be quickly closed. These are on the proposed agenda for the next meeting
https://www.w3.org/2017/dxwg/wiki/Meetings:DCAT-Telecon2018.03.21

(b)   Recognising that the issue threads will not be enough to summarize consensus and formulate proposals, I've set up some GitHub 'Milestones' for Topics that seem to cross multiple GitHub Issues https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/milestones , and created a Wiki page for each https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/wiki/DCAT-Vocabulary-topics .

The topic pages are all stubs until now, except for https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/wiki/Data-service where I've fleshed out a proposal around a Data Service class to address one of the recent discussion threads.

I'd like to invite the chief protagonists to flesh out proposals on the various topic pages - maybe ...

Nick and Makx - https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/wiki/License-and-rights
Rob, Antoine, Ruben - https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/wiki/Application-profiles
Nick and Simon - https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/wiki/Provenance-patterns
Andrea, Rob, Stian (if you are still listening?) -  https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/wiki/Dataset-versioning
Makx, Simon, Rob - https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/wiki/Data-aspects---semantics
Alejandra, Andrea, Armin - https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/wiki/Alignments-and-crosswalks

Alejandra has also suggests that some proposals might be inserted - with a warning that it is work in progress - into the Editors Draft, so we can get comment on the topic from the FPWD, and also get into the habit of writing the proposals up in a way that they can be dropped into the final text.

Thanks all

Simon
