Looking at the range of dcterms:publisher [1] and seeing its range of dcterms:Agent. Also seeing that in OSLC we recommend using dcterms:publisher with a value/range of oslc:Publisher [2]. So you can see the problem here, not critical but those that use ontology checkers may get tripped up.
My proposal is to update oslc:Publisher to be a rdfs:subClassOf of dcterms:Agent. Updating both the description in [2] and the published vocabulary.
