Re: descriptive infoset items vs. schema.org

Leonard,

thanks, this is true.

For those who may not be familiar with this:  the JSON-LD context file for schema.org <http://schema.org/>:

http://schema.org/docs/jsonldcontext.json <http://schema.org/docs/jsonldcontext.json>

includes definitions for, e.g., 'dc' or 'prov' for the Dublin Core and the Provenance vocabularies, for example. What this means in practice is that we can also use terms like

"dc:creator" : "somebody"

in the JSON serialization, referring to the corresponding DC term.

That being said, in my personal view, we should try to reuse schema.org <http://schema.org/> terms as much as possible to reduce the cognitive issues of mixing different vocabularies. I suspect that most of the DC terms have their schema.org <http://schema.org/> counterpart, for example…

Cheers

Ivan
