ISSUE-53 (r2rml-in-rdfs): RDFS vocabulary reference for R2RML, and namespace document [R2RML]

http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/track/issues/53

Raised by: Richard Cyganiak
On product: R2RML

The working group should produce an RDF Schema representation of the R2RML vocabulary terms. An obvious place to publish this would be as the namespace document for the rr: namespace.

To follow best practice for publishing vocabularies [1], on the namespace URI there should also be a human-readable version of this RDF schema. This could take a form that's very close to the Property Summary table in the R2RML spec [2], but also listing the classes and instances (rr:defaultGraph, rr:SQL2008).

The current table from the R2RML spec could then be replaced with a simpler and more compact Appendix that just lists all the terms and links to the place in the spec where they are defined,
