ckanext-ukds_custom_dcat_profiles

This extension provides a custom profile based on the dataset properties (Following the writing custom profiles documentation) for the UKDS CKAN platform.

The profile will support future non-object fields that could be created in any of the structures of the dataset (dataset, organization, resources etc). For RDF serialization of future new objects and list, an enhancement of the current profile is required.
