[tdwg-content] New term needs resolution: yearOfPublication

[Peter Desmet]

yearOfPublication is a very general term name, one I didn't
immediately connect to the publication year of a scientific name. Is
this intentional (in other words, can it be used for the
yearOfPublication of other things?) or should the name be more
descriptive?
