Dear all,

I'm evaluating the use of DCAT for enabling automatic harveting/crawling
of linked data (LD) datasets.

When using VoID to describe LD datasets, it is possible to indicate a
void:rootResource. This rdf resource will contain all the URIs of a
dataset that enable it to be harvested/crawled completely.
Does DCAT contain any property similar to void:rootResource? Or is this
requirement being taken in consideration for the future versions of DCAT?

(Note: I'm working in the context of aggregation of LD cultural heritage
resources, for Europeana - http://europeana.eu )

Thanks in advance for any feedback or advice.

Kind regards,
Nuno
