Re: [dxwg] Scope of DCAT - datasets, or digital descriptions (#1235)

About this comment @kcoyle 
>Thus, changing the D in DCAT from Dataset to Digital seems presumptuous to me, unless there are non-dataset folks coming forward to become part of the DCAT community. That could be encouraged, and if it comes to be _then_ a name change would make sense to me.

The advantage I would see on changing the name (while not the acronym) would be to emphasise the cataloguing aspects of the vocabulary rather than the data cataloguing aspects. This might help raising awareness between non-dataset folks on the cataloguing capabilities beyond data.
