@smrgeoinfo - we have implemented a profiles ontology to meet precisely these concerns. It also is limited to those concerns _not_ expressable in other canonical vocabularies. So it does directly define all the properties a given community may need to define a specification - but under the open world assumption things like skos:Definition, prov:wasDerivedFrom, dc:author would be appropriate. w.r.t. "conforming to the specification is going to be useful" - the profiles ontology partially addresses this by identifying the implications in terms of conformance to more general specifications. Describe "usefulness" beyond that is very challenging to do perfectly - but we have now an object type that can be further modelled by communities of practice with their own profiles. The profiles ontology supports interoperability at this declarative level _between_ such communities primarily. At the OGC I will indeed adapt Simon Cox's proposed modular specification OWL model - and create additional rules about such metadata - as a profile of the profiles ontology to meet the OGC's needs when publishing specifications and profiles thereof. Its all very RDF - turtles all the way down and Open World -- GitHub Notification of comment by rob-metalinkage Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/435#issuecomment-434902283 using your GitHub account
