Make the "time" member optional to align with STAC. #353

Closed pvretano closed 5 months ago

pvretano commented 5 months ago

In STAC, the time member is optional so, in order to promote more alignment between the two standards (since we want STAC to be a profile of Records), I've made the changes to make the top-level time member optional. I did, however, add a recommendation that says that the time member shoud be included in the record.

It would seem necessary to formalise optional FG JSON support as a named profile (conformance class). We could also define BP profiles including constraints implementing recommendations. I'll build some STAC building blocks based on such recommendations, allowing people to transparently declare the behaviour.
