Typo in the License document #6

Closed idimopoulos closed 4 years ago

idimopoulos commented 6 years ago

In American English, the word licence is not used. They only use License. It seems that DCAT was written based to the American English standards.

On the other side, it seems that ADMS-AP used the UK style grammar which is using licence as a noun and license as a verb. Under those standards, the published ADMS-AP is having a typo in every reference to the DCAT property LicenseDocument as it is referred as LicenceDocument.

References: Distribution license dct:LicenseDocument

We should change every instance of dct:LicenceDocument to dct:LicenseDocument in the ADMS-AP ontology.

By the way, this fix should be applied also to references towards the license document, like the distribution license term which is currently defined as

<rdf:Property rdf:about="http://purl.org/dc/terms/licence">
    <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#ObjectProperty"/>
    <dc:identifier xml:lang="en">dct:licence</dc:identifier>
    <rdfs:comment xml:lang="en">Conditions or restrictions for (re)use of the Distribution; if there are multiple licences, the most 'open' one should be given. Whenever relevant, the URIs under the concept scheme identified by http://purl.org/adms/OSIlicence/ can be used.</rdfs:comment>
    <rdfs:isDefinedBy rdf:resource="http://purl.org/dc/terms/"/>
    <rdfs:label xml:lang="en">Asset Distribution - licence</rdfs:label>
    <rdfs:range rdf:resource="http://purl.org/dc/terms/LicenceDocument"/>
    <rdfs:domain rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/ns/dcat#Distribution"/>
    <ns1:usageNote xml:lang="en">Mandatory Property - 1..1</ns1:usageNote>
  </rdf:Property>

The correct one is http://purl.org/dc/terms/license.

Closing this as it is fixed in version 2.02 as pointed in https://github.com/SEMICeu/ADMS-AP/issues/3
