[Schema] url for a resource option and split into 2, one for access details and one for download #209

Currently the resource.url field is required and is designed to be a url that takes a user to the resource itself.

However there are instances where such a .url isn't available, e.g.

Therefore suggest that we remove resource.url and replace it with 2 optional fields:

access_url - a URL that gives access to the resource, e.g. a webpage through which a user can request access by completing a form. download_url - The URL of the downloadable file in a given format.

@matamadio @stufraser1 how does this sound? This would help with the issue of commercial products such as Fathom and for internal only resources.

Agree on the proposal. We have many cases for access_url
