2. Dimensions and categories

The dimensions proposed seem quite high-level, so it is difficult to think of categories that are more general and group dimensions. In contrast, it seems in some cases desirable to have a level between dimensions and metrics. For example, we are dealing with assessing mapping quality. The metrics fall in the dimension of accuracy (i.e., does the output of the mapping process represent the object less accurately), and form a specific group there. To make the distinction of the different levels more confusing, the note in 7.3 Processability currently says "Level on the 5-star scale", which sounds more like a metric than a dimension (there could of course be metrics aggregating results from other metric, daq:requires could be used to express such a dependency). 

We are not sure if there is a strong need for categories, we would rather propose to consider nesting multiple levels of dimensions to allow grouping.
