Updated DCAT WD

Hi all,

As you'll have seen, I've been working on DCAT today - sorry I've left 
it so long to get back to.

Thanks to everyone who has responded to the issues I raised. I don't 
know whether they can be resolved on a Thursday call or not (that will 
depend on agenda space I guess). I can't make those calls for at least 
the remainder of the month which is a pain.

I've put an updated version of the doc at [1] (member only link).

Features:

- The recently added UML diagram and intro matter is included.
- The two instances of the language property are added.
- I've made a few editors' notes where relevant.

John, Fadi, Richard - are there more changes on the wiki that should be 
reflected in the doc? There are no clever bots to turn the wiki into the 
doc, I'm editing it manually so keeping the two in synch requires 
concentration!

In my head the next steps are:

- see if we can resolve the current open issues;
- tidy up the doc, try and ties a few more things down;
- create an RDF schema at www.w3.org/ns/dcat (I have an XSLT that, with 
a modicum of editing could be useful for generating an HTML 
representation - other may have better ones)
- think about going to First Public Working Draft. Doing that requires a 
WG resolution - something for the f2f perhaps?

HTH

Phil.
