Simple data format: metadata file format?

[jpstacey]

The SDF document references the "Data Package specification" for its metadata format. In my mind, this raises two slightly pedantic issues that might be worth clarifying:

• What's the metadata filename called in SDF? The DP spec says "datapackage.json" for this file, which sounds too DP-specific. "metadata.json"?
• Is the structure of this file literally single-level JSON key/value pairs i.e:

{
  "version": "1.0",
  "license": "CC BY-NC-SA 2.0",
  ...
}

? If so, it might be worth putting a sample of it on the DP page.

(As a separate and much less important note, clicking on the Data Package specification loses menu context: should it be somewhere on the right-hand menu hierarchy? As it is, it's difficult to find without clicking through from e.g. the SDF page.)

I feel we can stick with datapackage.json for the metadata fle but agree on having an example.

This is now fixed, see e.g. http://www.dataprotocols.org/en/latest/data-packages.html#datapackage-json
