RE: Invitation for public review of DCAT-AP

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the quick reply.  I've just breezed through the document you
enclosed and it reads like a technical implementation guide, which is
totally appropriate for a technical specification like DCAT-AP.  But I
wonder if we could have a look at the 26 use cases DWBP collected at the
start of our working group collaboration and develop some narrative
examples that explain how those use cases might be different with DCAT-AP?

Maybe we could pick 3-5 of the 26 and write them out in a cookbook recipe
format that helps readers understand how DCAT-AP will make their
implementations better.

What do you think?


Best Regards,

Steve

Hi Steve

The attached draft is something that Pascal Romain (copied) is working on
and I was working with him to get it into English as well as French.  We
(Pascal & collabs) will need to get it updated following the DCAT-AP
review, but we are trying to get illustrations embedded into this guide to
help people with implementation.

Perhaps this DWBP group can help provide more illustrations … and also help
us get the implementation guide to a wider audience at the appropriate
time.

Cheers

Peter

Phil,

I enjoyed reading this paper.  It is well written, concise, and well
structured.  But it reads more like a glossary of terms than a description
of how a standard works, can be used, and implemented.  I wish the paper
offered living examples of how DCAT-AP would work in real life - to give
readers themselves more context about the standard and its impact on data.


Thanks for sharing Makx!

Steve

Thanks Makx,

It will be particularly interesting, IMO, for the WG to study how the AP
work has handled versioning.

For those who prefer URLs of the relevant documents rather than having
to look for them on the portal, they are:
