Dear railML experts,

We noticed a problem in the railML 3.3 schema files and their references to dublincore.org.
It seems that the location for the dcterms.xsd is not reachable anymore, since it uses the http prefix. Only the URL with a https prefix works. The http URL is used in railML 3.3 common3.xsd line 12.
During research I found a GitLab ticket that mentions that railML would always use https in all future version, but this is appearantly not the case in this reference in railML 3.3.

While we can easily fix this in our software, I suggest you change the URL to https.

Thank you and best regards,
Dominik Looser,

I'm receiving a proper 302 redirect when I try the http link. But for schema locations (not for URIs or namespaces), I agree that changing the URL is better.
