You called out, "change “from the Darwin Core Type vocabulary” to “from the list of recommended controlled values” (which is…?). The basisOfRecord definition must change to accomodate the deprecation of the Type Vocabulary. Since the Type Vocabulary became classes in the dwc namespace instead, the new definition should be just the first sentence of the old definition "The specific nature of the data record." The comment can then be, 'Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary such as the list of Darwin Core classes. Examples: "LivingSpecimen", "PreservedSpecimen", "FossilSpecimen", "HumanObservation", "MachineObservation".

Now that the Executive has approved the new definitions of Darwin Core classes, I have received the green light to revise the DwC RDF guide in the light of those changes and then subject it to a 30 day public comment period. Since the proposal has already been recommended by this group (the RDF TG), I do not plan to make major substantive changes to the document. However, given that the document has vegetated for about a year and a half, there are several aspects of it that I have realized probably should be changed. I have made a laundry list of change items, which you can view at:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/153h1_kyfMllKGgfehVLB7ubzRDDaWtnaGHDDwJ6nkwE/edit?usp=sharing
However, I don't really expect people to look at that list carefully. Rather, I'm going to send several emails about the general kinds of changes I am planning to make. If you have a problem with those changes, please respond to the email on this list. If I don't get comments, I will assume that no one objects to me making that category of changes.
I will try to create two documents on the RDF TG wiki: a "clean" version for the public comment and a version using highlighting and strikethrough text so that you can review the changes I made. When they are operational, I'll send links.
Since the Executive is actually paying attention to this now, I am going to make this happen on the timescale of days rather than weeks. So if you care about this issue, please try to devote enough time to read the emails. I will try to keep them brief
