Should any DCAT predicates be registered as IANA relations? #946

From time to time elements/properties/predicates from W3C vocabularies are also registered with IANA in one place or another. e.g.

two media-types and one relation from POWDER https://www.w3.org/TR/powder-dr/#appB
four relations in Resource Hints (in progress) https://www.w3.org/TR/resource-hints/#iana-considerations
15 interval relations from OWL-Time - see https://github.com/link-relations/registry/issues/4

Life is easier if they are identified in advance and a specific IANA Considerations annex added to the Rec in good time.

Is there anything in DCAT that might be useful in IANA?

@dr-shorthair , are you interested in reviving this issue?

dr-shorthair commented 3 years ago

Hmm. The following properties from the DCAT namespace may be of general interest, so we might consider registering as IANA link relations: dcat:accessService, dcat:endPointDescription, dcat:endPointURL, dcat:previousVersion, dcat:hasVersion, dcat:isVersionOf, dcat:hasCurrentVersion, dcat:inSeries.
