Re: Use of SHACL for profiles

This is yet another confirmation that the SHACL is a (one of possibly many)
implementation resources, with a role, for a conceptual profile.

The pointy end then is not about the nature of profiles - but to think
about interoperability - and whether such roles can be modelled as
sub-properties of a role predicate,  a class hierarchy (subclasses of some
Role class) or a controlled vocabulary with some registration mechanism
(like MIME types for dcterms:format), or dereferenceable URIs for
dcterms:hasFormat. If so what can we safely borrow for such a model vs what
should we build into profileDesc vocab (given the lack of any alternative
suggestion to date, other than just rejecting a swathe of identified
requirements which is always an option)

(and of course finding nicer names for the the vocabulary and its
constituent parts)
