UC 4.43: Improving discovery of spatial data on the Web

1. Proposed revision:

Current text:

"The SDW WG BPs may contribute to this by recommending best practices
for publishing geospatial metadata on the Web. For example, by
proposing standard serialisations of geospatial metadata in formats
and vocabularies used by search engines to index Web resources - e.g.,
RDFa, Microdata, Microformats."

To be replaced with:

"Best practices for publishing geospatial metadata on the Web should
be recommended. This includes, for example, standard serialisations of
geospatial metadata in formats and vocabularies used by search engines
to index Web resources - e.g., RDFa, Microdata, Microformats."
