The [DBpedia Archivo Databus agent](https://databus.dbpedia.org/ontologies) generates only basic, static documentation for the archived snapshots of the ontologies. More, augmented and dynamic information for this ontology is rendered on and retrievable via [DBpedia Archivo Frontend](http://archivo.dbpedia.org/info?o=http://www.w3.org/2003/06/sw-vocab-status/ns).

## Ontology Metadata

DBpedia Archivo extracts metadata from the ontology for well known properties (e.g. dct:description). This subsection shows the content of every property individually using a separate heading.

### dc:description

An RDF vocabulary for relating SW vocabulary terms to their status.

### rdfs:comment

This vocabulary was created in the FOAF project, based on experience with FOAF, Dublin Core and other early RDF vocabularies. Deployment experience shows that changing namespace URIs is expensive and unrewarding, so this vocabulary provides terms to support in-place evolution of structured data vocabularies. By indicating status at the level of terms rather than vocabularies, dictionary-style, fine grained improvements become easier. Different organizations and parties can agree or disagree on the status of a vocabulary term; however the status published alongside the term may deserve special attention. Future work could include patterns for citing announcements and decisions, or using SKOS to decentralise the extension of the basic status levels.
