I am of the opinion that the DCAT model is suitable for cataloguing many things, not just datasets. In https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/1221#issuecomment-607040099 I sketched an example of a description of a physical specimen, in a way that could be a member of a DCAT catalog of specimens. On the other hand, the name of the vocabulary 'Data Catalog Vocabulary' appears to be more narrowly scoped. We discussed this briefly in the DCAT task-group telecon last week, and it was suggested that, if the scope is more general than 'data', then we should consider changing the name. For example 'Digital Catalog Vocabulary` would allow us to retain the acronym, while better reflecting an extended scope. -- GitHub Notification of comment by dr-shorthair Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/1235#issuecomment-616031911 using your GitHub account
