[discussing the email template]

Caroline: congratulations on the update!

<aisaac> +1

Caroline: let's get comments on the email template

<kcoyle> plh: on use of Google docs - being used more and more and W3C is looking to get an account of its own

<Caroline_> https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_f5CAZv7rgUjJH5YXkmD6w5xS6GX5X2AmEp_LMptAfQ/edit#gid=560881316

Caroline: (concerns about personal data)

riccardoAlbertoni: we probably need to add a new column but also extend the list of people

[editing the list of folks to reach out to]

annette_g: the message could include a link to the spreadsheet and we manage access control via google

<annette_g> and we can just say why the link doesn't work for everyone.

Caroline_: ok, let's do that. also promote through social network

plh: we could also blog on https://www.w3.org/blog/

<Caroline_> https://www.w3.org/blog/2020/02/data-catalog-vocabulary-dcat-version-2-published-today/

riccardoAlbertoni_: should the post different from the letter or could it be the same thing?

plh: could be the same

Action: Caroline to post a blog on DCAT3 once the letter is complete

<trackbot> Created ACTION-446 - Post a blog on dcat3 once the letter is complete [on Caroline Burle - due 2021-05-11].

Caroline_: anything else from the other subgroups?

[none heard]

<Zakim> AndreaPerego, you wanted to point to https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/1355

Issue 1355

Reviving work on the Profile Guidance document

AndreaPerego: shared an idea on restarting the on the profile guidance
… welcome feedback
… proposal is to make it more similar to a best practice document

kcoyle: adding to my GH comment, I do think it would be useful given the multiple profiles that have been created
… it's possible that it could end up fostering ideas that could be generalized beyond the DCAT profile

aisaac: focusing on dcat profile to narrow the scope would help
… and avoid issues on profiles in general
… there was a problem on discussion on inheritance
… Karen posted a link to the dublin core primer
… trying to discuss inheritance forces us to discuss all of the possible cases, which isn't the best approach
… if we limit ourselves and avoid inheritance, we could make a way forward

<annette_g> +1 to Antoine

aisaac: I like AndreaPerego and kcoyle directions

kcoyle: so, what's next?
… I don't know the dcat profiles well, so we need someone from the dcat side of things to be part of this
… and find out if what if anything else has been written about the dcat profiles

aisaac: couple of survey documents about the dcat profiles
… that could be useful (even if it was a long time ago)
… I know about dcat and profiles but have limited time in the coming months

kcoyle: I can start looking at them in the context of dublin core and see what requirements seem to surface from them

aisaac: there was a paper a while ago...

kcoyle: I would welcome a link

AndreaPerego: I could look into it

annette_g: would like to help here as well

Caroline_: ok, we have a new subgroup for this then :)
… should we put this on the agenda for the next plenary?

<aisaac> " Towards an open government data ecosystem in Europe using common standards"

<AndreaPerego> I think this is the doc aisaac was referring to: https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/semantic-interoperability-community-semic/solution/dcat-application-profile-data-portals-europe/document/national-extensions-analysis-dcat-ap

kcoyle: sure
