- (Added as an issue at the suggestion of @cygri)
dct:language should be added to DCAT <http://t.co/loHgJejt>
Discussion: We (TWC RPI) are refining our IOGDS <http://t.co/7HPOldN> and will be adding dct:language the Catalog level, first for statistics purposes and then as a browsable facet. dct:language is in our metadata model, as a conversion "enhancement" that is added after scraping and first-pass RDF conversion. The person doing that work has noted the predominant languages (approx 16 across 116 catalogs from over 36 countries and international organizations) but we don't have it "in the graph" (yet)... - Related Actions Items:

Related notes:
I added dct:language to both the catalog and dataset <http://t.co/loHgJejt>
For the range I currently set it to Literal string which is the code of the language as defined in ISO-639. I think it would be helpful to have a custom datatype for the ISO-639 language code. any one aware of such data type defined that we can use? or any other suggestions?
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3066.txt gives more precise description and is better to be referenced. It covers the cases when a language does not have a 2-character tag defined in ISO 639-1 ...
