RDF Schema: add ISA Open Metadata license

[EmidioStani]

Like for DCAT-AP, the CPSV-AP RDF schema released should include the ISA Open Metadata Licence v1.1

The RDF used in DCAT-AP is:

    <dct:license>
      <rdf:Description rdf:about="https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/licence/isa-open-metadata-licence-v11">
        <dct:title>ISA Open Metadata Licence v1.1</dct:title>
        <cc:attributionName>European Commission</cc:attributionName>
        <cc:attributionURL rdf:resource="http://ec.europa.eu/"/>
      </rdf:Description>
    </dct:license>

As per issue: https://github.com/SEMICeu/DCAT-AP/issues/63

there must be need to move CC BY 4.0 or CC0 1.0 as per:

https://ec.europa.eu/transparency/regdoc/rep/3/2019/EN/C-2019-1655-F1-EN-MAIN-PART-1.PDF

To me CC0 seems more appropriate (public domain), but there can be arguments both ways. Anyway moving to creative commons, whether CC BY 4.0 or CC0 will be an improvement.

There are different ways to license metadata: https://www.europeandataportal.eu/sites/default/files/d2.1.2_training_module_2.5_data_and_metadata_licensing_en_edp.pdf

In particular, the CC BY has been chosen by FOAF (http://xmlns.com/foaf/spec/), Dublin Core Terms (https://www.dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dcmi-terms/, see on the bottom) and now DCAT-AP

Therefore we propose to use CC BY 4.0 in alignment of DCAT-AP.

This issue has been discussed during the webinar of the 09 December 2020. Given that no objections were raised when the proposed resolution was presented, the change will therefore be included in the next release of CPSV-AP.

This change has been made in CPSV-AP 3.0, therefore this issue will be closed.
