<p class="issue" data-number="90">
<h2>Versioning</h2>
<p>Versioning can be applied to any of the first class citizens DCAT resources including Catalogs, Datasets, Distributions. The notion of version is very much related to the community practices, data management policy and the workflows in place. It is up to data providers to decide when and why a new version should be released. For this reason, DCAT refrains from providing definitions or rules about when changes in a resource should turn in a new release of it. </p>
<p>Versioning may be understood as involving relationships between datasets, which is supported by the <a href="#Property:resource_qualifiedRelation"><code>dcat:qualifiedRelation</code></a> and described in <a href="#qualified-relationship">Relationships between datasets and other resources</a>. The class <a href="#Class:Relationship"><code>dcat:Relationship</code></a> supports providing information about the relationship, and could be extended for versioning information.</p>
<p class="issue" data-number="90">
The need to be able to describe version relationships of datasets has been identified as a requirement to be satisfied in the revision of DCAT. Also see detailed requirements in
