## Why we do this
Issue: https://github.com/sfb1451/crc-schema-draft/issues/4
- overarching goal
- practical role of linkml
- which step in our tabby-to-catalog pipeline we describe
- validation of tabby spreadsheets
- data for the catalog
## IRI: Type vs Property
Issue: https://github.com/sfb1451/crc-schema-draft/issues/3
- Remaining incorrect use of Type IRI as properties
- How to define replacements
Meeting quick thoughts: best to define own property, create own class, assign the external IRI to it, and use it as Range for the property.
## Case study: name
Issue: https://github.com/sfb1451/crc-schema-draft/issues/5
- Providing "generic" descriptions for slots
- Using "simple" types from schema.org
## Case study: Author
Issue: https://github.com/sfb1451/crc-schema-draft/issues/6
- Slot with two classes in Range
- Using schema.org types when we use a modified subset of fields
## Case study: NCBITaxon
Issue: https://github.com/sfb1451/crc-schema-draft/issues/7
- Controlled dictionary term
