State:
CLOSED
Product:
DCAT
Raised by:

Description:
rename dcat:Distribution to Resource as suggested by Rufus Pollock from OKFN. The renaming also implies relaxing the interpretation of the distribution from an accessible form of a dataset to resources related to the dataset (this will include documentation, examples, etc.)

[28 Feb] This is consistent with CKAN usage; I don't see problems against it other than use of Distribution by early adopters...
