Sorry for the duplicate post; but it appears my original message was not sent as plain text, making it difficult to read, so I'm trying another mail account. [original message] Hello all, I'm working on a proposal to publish the World Bank's data catalog through DCAT and am trying to quickly come up to speed. But first, I just want to check on the status of the latest draft draft at http://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-dcat, in light of the Resolutions recorded at the WG 2012-10-25 meeting, below. Can I assume these resolutions should (and someday will) be reflected in the latest draft, and just haven't been added yet? 1. Drop dcat:dataQuality and dcat:granularity 2. define dcat:mediaType as a sub-property of dc:format. Publishers should use dcat:mediaType to provide a Media Type as defined by IANA. if this is not available, then publishers may use dc:format 4. replace properties dcat:size and dcat:bytes with one property dcat:byteSize 5. resolve to publish a new version of DCAT in 2 weeks' time; another draft in the next 2-3 weeks Also wondering about dcat:granularity, which I understand was split into dcat:spatial and dcat:temporal. However, those concepts both pertain to coverage, whereas granularity means the geographic size of things. For instance, I might have a dataset with records that have a granularity of "national" but spatially cover a region described as "South America." Would appreciate suggestions on how to address this if dcat:granularity is no longer part of the vocabulary. Many thanks, Tim Herzog World Bank
