2 years ago @rsc3 , thanks for submitting this issue.
Please note that, even though not explicitly defined as such, dcterms:publisher is meant to be used as an object property, as indicated by the dcam:rangeIncludes statement in the DCTERMS definition of this property:
dcterms:publisher
dcam:rangeIncludes dcterms:Agent ;
dcterms:issued "2008-01-14"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#date> ;
a rdf:Property ;
rdfs:comment "An entity responsible for making the resource available."@en ;
rdfs:isDefinedBy <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> ;
rdfs:label "Publisher"@en ;
rdfs:subPropertyOf <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/publisher> .BTW, OWL annotation properties can also be object properties (see, e.g., rdfs:seeAlso and rdfs:isDefinedBy). I suppose you meant instead "datatype properties".

Use case name
Status:
Identifier:
Creator: Sidney Cox
Deliverable(s): DCAT1.1, DCAT-AP ''Which deliverable or deliverables does this UC relate to?''
Tags
''Optional space-separated list of tags out of the above catalog (extend on demand)''
Stakeholders
data producer, data publisher ''Mandatory list of stakeholders experiencing the problem. When describing the stakeholder, please be as specific as possible (e.g., data consumer, data producer, data publisher, program, etc.) and avoid using the term user.''
Problem statement
DCAT Spec indicates that the range for dct:publisher is Agent which made me think it was an object property, but it is an annotation property and thus this is not a legal range.
''Mandatory statement of the current situation, including a description of the problem, the stakeholders experiencing the problem, and what the stakeholder(s) are expected to supply (i.e. what contextual knowledge are they expected to have available) and/or receive to resolve the problem they are experiencing. In describing the stakeholder, please be as specific as possible (e.g., data consumer, data producer, data publisher, program, etc.) and avoid using the term user.''
