hi together,

thanx also from me ;-) . i will have a look at both sides - scheming and
dcat - to solve our demands.
@stefan - there is a little misspelling in your rdf:
http://handbook.opendata.swiss/samples/opendataswiss-themes.rdf
"Volkswirtschft" -> "Volkswirtschaft" ;-) .

best regards and merry christmas from germany
