Re: DCAT & Provenance

Hi Jeni

+1 for this. From the PROV perspective we are actual ok with both. In our
mapping to from dublin core to PROV dct:provenance maps to
prov:has_provenance.

It would be nice to encourage people to use PROV in the DCAT document
though for describing provenance.

Thanks
Paul
