Re: [dxwg] Are we superseding DCAT 1 or not once DCAT 2 is a REC? (#1177)

IMO, stating that DCAT2 supercedes DCAT1 should not be a big problem (as DCAT2 is backward compatible with DCAT1). Said that, I am perfectly happy also with the other proposal, outlined by @makxdekkers in https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/1177#issuecomment-557919538

I am more concerned about the issue reported by @nicholascar in https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/1177#issuecomment-557939410 :

> The PID URI for DCAT, https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat/, now redirects to DCAT 2. It means it's now no-longer possible to find DCAT 1 online. Is this as intended?

I don't think this should be the right behaviour: the DCAT1 spec should be still accessible at its URL, and no redirection should be in place.
