@Juan-Juan-1Why do you think that: "since it greatly reduces the value of the portal itself"?
I don't understand this proposal, I think the current rule to duplicate the value is fine, since then it's deliberate and can be checked by a consumer (i.e. if the values in dcat:landingPage
and dcat:accessURL
are identical, I know there is no direct download of the data available.
I agree that this should be an exception and publishers should be shamed for this, but sometimes it's the reality and the standard should account for that.
In DCAT-AP CH is noted (see dcat:landingpage) "If distributions are accessible only through a landing page (i.e. direct download URLs are not known), the landing page link should be duplicated as accessURL on the distributions." We should decide whether this is acceptable or not, since it greatly reduces the value of the portal itself. If so, criteria should be defined for these exceptions.
