Hi, sorry to leave it to the line on feedback. I work with datasets which are changing and being updated, such as our staff directory, list of buildings etc. These have errors, and when it's open data people spot these errors and want them fixed. We have been working on the principle that it's good practice to include a contact for every dataset and a URL or email address for suggesting corrections. For this we use the terms: http://purl.org/openorg/contact http://purl.org/openorg/corrections I've just been told by the Europe dcat application profile group that they will only consider terms for the application profile which are considered "part of dcat" and so I would very strongly like to see these terms included, or equivalent terms added. Getting feedback from the consumers of your open data is really key in getting the best value out of it, and should be best practice in all non-static datasets. -- Christopher Gutteridge -- http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/cjg University of Southampton Open Data Service: http://data.southampton.ac.uk/ You should read the ECS Web Team blog: http://blogs.ecs.soton.ac.uk/webteam/ Would you recommend the software you use to another institution? http://uni-software.ideascale.com/
