Nick Crossley commented on OSLCCORE-16:
---------------------------------------

To allow clients to discover the RDF vocabularies supported by a server, those vocabularies must be referenced from the service discovery documents, and the vocabularies themselves must be readable RDF resources. In OSLC 2.0 discovery documents, the oslc:domain property references a namespace that should resolve to the vocabulary document.

OSLC Core 3.0 should recommend many of the best practices for managing RDF vocabularies described at https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/LinkedData/BestPractices.

> OSLC Core 3.0 defines common capabilities, protocols and resource types that are reused by OSLC domain specifications. The purpose of OSLC Discovery capabilities is to allow clients to determine what capabilities or services a server provides and adapt their interaction accordingly.
> OSLC domain specifications describe what OSLC core capabilities are required to support that domain, and specify any other capabilities and vocabularies that define the domain. It is highly desirable that these domain vocabularies be open and extensible to enable servers to provide the information needed to meet their business needs while doing so in a standard way. Therefore  the OSLC domain vocabularies could be seen as a specification of the minimum RDF classes and properties that a server is expected to support.
> OSLC Core 3.0 Discovery should specify the means for how clients could discover the actual vocabularies supported by a server implementing an OSLC domain in case they are able to make use of information provided beyond the minimum required to support the domain.
