If the principles are changed add a revision note to the "Published January 17th, 2011" sentence and add link to previous version on internet archive


How to formally express and share an application profile?

Many  different people and organizations build services that publish RDF  metadata where properties from different vocabularies are re-used. This  mix of re-used elements along with the specific characteristics of  re-use is often called an application profile (AP). As far as I (Adrian)  know, there doesn't exist a way to formally express (in RDF)  information about an application profile like:
- Who created it when?
- Which properties/elements are part of the AP?
- Which labels are used in the application's user interface for these properties.
- Which restriction are put on the use of the properties in the application?
- ...
 
I  don't want to discuss this problem here but would be especially  interested in different approaches on how to develop such a formal model  for publishing APs: Who could develop it? Which working groups  etc.already exist that could be the right place to develop something  like this?
Dublin Core is interested in this. We should see if it can be done through DCMI. Perhaps form a community group? Or a community group at W3C?
There was a session on APs at the most recent DC meeting (2013, Lisbon):

Also, W3C has a validation task group that has some overlap with APs. http://www.w3.org/2012/12/rdf-val/

Next steps:
- Karen will contact Dublin Core leadership re launching a AP community group
