For forks that are interested W3C has setup a CSV on the Web Working Group https://www.w3.org/2013/csvw/wiki/Main_Page to provide recommendations for better interoperability when working with CSV datasets.
I raised an issue a few months ago on the working documents, with my main issue being that spatial datatypes are not really accounted for: https://github.com/w3c/csvw/issues/795 I believe this is an important thing to solve as publishing large open datasets is something that is not well addressed and keeps getting reinvented by multiple groups or vendors. They have now responded to my issue with this response: https://github.com/w3c/csvw/pull/822 But I think this response needs a wider community view.
