Inconsistent/underdefined terminology around "entity" and "resource" #71

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Currently the terms "entity" and "resource" are used inconsistently throughout 
the spec. We resolved:

To use the term "entity" for "meaningful/interesting things described in the 
dataset, from the publisher's perspective"

To use the term "resource" for "nodes in the RDF graph".
