Re: dwbp-ISSUE-211: Should we be more explicit about the use of vocabularies? [Best practices document(s)]

Thanks for your answer and your proposal. I am ok with keeping the reuse
aspect. I just updated the BP  Re-use vocabularies [1] according to your
proposal. I also updated the Intended Outcome Section. Please take a look
and tell me if it is ok for you.

Cheers,
Bernadette
