Re: [dxwg] Profiles are "named collections of properties" or metadata terms (if not RDF) [ID41] (5.41) (#275)

I dont feel very comfortable with this rewrite yet..

"Profiles must be made up sets of elements, such as classes and properties, that define instance data or metadata. Profiles must have an unique identifier or name"

is confusing data and metadata (of course) but i dont think we want to join the list of failed attempts to distinguish these (failed as in we dont have an obvious consensus yet!)

specifically, i think profiles consist of "statements about" "data elements"  ( and thus can be seen as metadata about such elements, and indirectly about data within such elements). The profile represents a set (i.e a named set) of such statements.
