      OSLC Core 3.0 should include a section on vocabulary discovery. This section should say that all domain specifications MUST provide an RDFS or OWL document for that defines the schema for the domain vocabulary. Every domain instance MUST have an rdfs:isDefinedBy property that references the RDF class that defines that instance.

      Description

      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.
