Re: [dxwg] semantics of the dcat:bbox attribute could (should?) be more explicit (#1392)

@andrea-perego thank you for the links to the other discussions. 

About "why its in here": I see a lot of clarifying arguments, especially in issue 83.  I agree with the formal arguments about why you might want a separate object property to describe this particular usecase. But I maintain it should be handled by a geospatially oriented vocabulary and not by one aimed at data cataloging. I would say it makes the catalogging vocabulary cluttered/bulky/bloated with concepts that are/should be handled in different domains.  Having said that: i get the sense that decision about this issue has been made and I might disagree with the outcome, but perhaps I  should lay that to rest ;-)

My suggested description would be: 
for dcat:bbox: "Represents the physical space the dcterms:Location occupies"
for dcat:centroid: "Represents the centerpoint of the dcterms:Location"

I appreciate the time you guys take to work through this.
