First of what will be a multi-part submission for an interoperable client ecosystem. This pull request focuses on providing some introductory text, use case, definitions, environment, and an approach for application registration for further panel iteration.

I believe we'd want :ApplicationRegistry to be :applicationRegistry -- we seem to be inconsistent in the capitalization.

ApplicationRegistry seems to be an instance; they are usually capitalized.

Reading this made me wonder why they are not RDF types though.

We had some debate on this -- landed on the case that (as of now) there is no difference between an application registry and a data registry, aside from the value of the :registryType predicate.

This :registryType is validated using the ShEx here to ensure a registry set for applications (ApplicationRegistry) does not have members of type DataRegistry.

RDF types would seem to make sense here. E.g.:

ecosystem:Registry a rdfs:Class .
ecosystem:ApplicationRegistry a ecosystem:Registry .

<#set> a ecosystem:ApplicationRegistry .

Fully expect and welcome tons of feedback on the data model. We put more of a premium on getting something together and presented soon even if it wasn't pristine yet so that we can all iterate on it together. We're reusing most of these patterns so the faster we can nail them down the cleaner the next submissions will be 🙂
