Alignment with DOAP - Description of a Project

The since v0.3 RDF Vocabulary reuses classes, properties, and relationships defined by DOAP - Description of a project. For example:

• admssw:SoftwareAsset is a subclass of doap:Version.
• admssw:SoftwareProject is a subclass of doap:Project
• project team relationships like doap:tester, doap:deleloper, doap:helper, etc is reused
• doap:release
• ....

Does the working group see any further properties in DOAP that should be explicitly referenced by the ADMS.F/OSS specification?

There are also some properties in DOAP that make it less interoperable with other specifications:

• doap:description: Both the dcterms:description and doap:description properties fully cover the ADMS.F/OSS property of the same name. It would be better if doap:description were defined as a sub-property of dcterms:description. Similarly, the doap:name propertie is a sub-property of rdfs:label. The right place to make this change is in the DOAP RDF Schema.

Should this be requested from the maintainers of DOAP?
