[rdfweb-dev] how to say "I Made This!"

[Danny Ayers]

Looking good, and makes sense, though I'd appreciate a little explanation of
a couple of points :

Why not dc:creator? Libby's comment suggests this has come up before, and
it's foaf:made not foaf:created but I can't remember why this was.

Do you have a reference (DC somewhere?) for "making it proper"?

<link rel="schema.foaf" href="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1" />

("schema.foaf" looks strange, though again presumably there's a reason for
this)

Cheers,
Danny.
