doap:Project versus CreativeWork

From: Adrian Giurca <giurca@tu-cottbus.de> · Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2012 15:14:58 +0100

Hi all,
Looking on what CreativeWork offers to represent software projects I did 
the below example encoding properties both with RDFa 1.1. Lite and 
Microdata. I used DOAP with RDFa and Microdata with Schema. The example 
is a a bit long but may help.

In overall I found that  CreativeWork does not define a number of 
specific properties with respect of software work similar with 
doap:license, doap:release, doap:version, doap:revision.

Is @author same as doap:maintainer ? Or, maybe @editor is same as 
doap:maintainer
I used @discussionUrl same as doap:mailing-list

Maybe we need http://schema.org/Software or 
http://schema.org/CreativeWork/Software .

Here is the example (there is a wiki http://getschema.org were such 
examples are maintained):

<body itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/CreativeWork" about="#Redland">
