Re: [dxwg] Example 60, 61, 62, why is accessURL included (#1437)

@aisaac AFAIK DCAT itself doesn't include cardinality, so I believe this only relates to DCAT-AP. My reading of `dcat:accessURL` vs `dcat:downloadURL` is that the former points to a web site and the latter to an actual file to be downloaded. That seems clear enough. But it becomes muddied a bit in DCAT-AP because `dcat:accessURL` is mandatory, yet it seems that one doesn't always have a website URL to put there. Thus, people have filled that in with the same link as the `dcat:downloadURL` simply because they have to fill it in. I think the question by @smrgeoinfo that opened this issue might require the DCAT-AP folks to rethink the cardinality constraints around these two properties.
