Would it be useful to have a short discussion on porting SimDM to VO-DML?
I already took a first stab at that some time ago and would be happy to discuss that.
Would be particularly useful (i.e. required) also IF you want annotations of tabular theory data with the model.
Btw, semantic vocabularies are explicitly supported in VO-DML, almost same as we did already for SImDM.
(After all, VO-DML is a very direct descendant form the VO-URP work we did for SImDM).

Cheers
