Format became an array at top level and a string inside distribution

[JoshData]

Not sure what to make of this change. The "format" field is now supposed to be an array of MIME types. If the top-level format field is supposed to correspond to the top-level accessURL, then it would only ever be a single MIME type since accessURL necessarily provides a single downloadable file. (Except in unusual and advanced use of HTTP.)

Or if it repeats the formats found in the distributions, then it's redundant.

It's also at odds with the example in the documentation for "distribution" which shows the use of distribution's "format" field as a string, and not an array.

So... just trying to figure out what I'm supposed to put in it....

Congrats on posting the updated spec though!

Interesting-- thanks for pointing this out. Thoughts @MarinaMartin, @seanherron?

Thanks for all your help with the schema updates along the way, @JoshData.

This is a good point. I believe it may have been made when accessURL was proposed to be an array of URLs. I'll submit a pull request to change the cardinality and format.

It looks like #148 fixed, so I'm closing this issue. Josh, thanks for the heads up.
