== Clarify use of dct:conformsTo perhaps with additional properties ==
From Irene Polikoff for the W3C SHACL CG:

> I found the use of `dct:conformsTo` in the example somewhat confusing. It seems to say that a resource with the role `role:ConformanceTest` conforms to SHACL. Is this correct? Or is the intention to say that the test is implemented in SHACL to test the conformance of something else (what is that something else? Some dataset?) to this profile. Of course, if a test is implemented in SHACL, then the test should be expected to conform to SHACL specification. However, for me, there was some cognitive overloading or dissonance here in the use of the term ‘conform’. I would prefer to see some other property.
