Naming convension for domain ontologies #123

Currently the EMMO domain ontologies hosted on github are prefixed with "domain-". Is this really nessesary?

Discuss and document what we agree on in the governance document.

I think that words should only be included if they provide some unique and essential meaning. "Domain" is implied already, in my opinion, so it should not be included.

The only reason to include domain- would be if we intend for other ontologies middle- or application- to be hosted there as well.
