[[ Just to follow with Hugh statements which are somehow in line with dcat spec [1]

In my mind, a dataset is rather abstract - a collection of data that is being 
made available.

They may use a combination of any or all of SPARQL endpoints, downloads of 
"dump"s, and resolvable URIs (Linked Data).

They may also make it available in other forms, but we are possibly primarily 
concerned with RDF here, although it would be a shame if we could not embrace 
the more abstract concept.

Maybe DCAT could be more generic to reuse here instead of voID.
btw, I saw this endS[1] vocab made by Pierre-Yves at the time he built his endpoint monitoring tool. endS already take into account ends:statusResponseTime of the endpoint.
