Instead of normatively requiring an initial context, such as RDFa does, instead JSON-LD has the ability to import contexts. This approach means that the existing context rules are followed, and the best practice context can be updated over time as new norms emerge in the community. If the best practice context is not useful to a particular community, then they don't need to import it.

To Do:

• Discuss the set of ontologies to include as prefixes
• Discuss the set of aliases and term definitions to include (e.g. id, type, label, comment)
• Create and publish context document in /ns/
