I pitched in with a small comment. I've seen the thread and thought "must thread that" - and now I have. DCAT etc. is not really what Peter's after - it's values for dcterms:subject I think.

So what I'm looking for now is possible community interest, background info etc. P On 04/03/2013 15:34, Bernadette Hyland wrote: > Hi Fadi, John & Phil, > There is a detailed thread that Peter Krantz kicked off about open data set vocabularies on Friday (1-Mar).
