Re: Using DCAT for RSS

Hi Cristiano,

dcat:Dataset and dcat:Distribution are not disjoint so you can have an 
RSS feed as an instance of both. But it wouldn't be correct to have a 
dcat:Dataset that was a collection of RSS feeds and then each of those 
feeds as a Distribution since the Distribution is a way of accessing the 
full dataset. You may have an API that allows you to select subsets of 
the dataset (that's a hot topic for me at the moment) and so your 
Distribution, which is an API, might well yield a single RSS feed but 
you'll need to think of it like that.

I'm confusing myself just writing this but I hope it makes some sense. 
And, it would be remiss of me, when talking about DCAT, not to point you 
to the workshop on that topic later this year: 
https://www.w3.org/2016/11/sdsvoc/ Your question is very much in scope 
for that.

Cheers

Phil.
