one thought about "role": is it appropriate to re-engineer the

from what is apparently originally intended as a relatively static
feature (ie. "sales engineer" for a person or "green construction" for
an organization) to something relevant only in the immediate context
(ie. "notetaker" for a specific meeting, or "abstain" for a vote)?
It looks to me like "role" in vCard and hCard means what "role" in
English means. I would say "notetaker" is a role, but "abstain" is
not. Maybe "abstainer" could be a role, but it would need to be
defined within a very specific context, unless you're describing
someone who just goes around abstaining all day. I think roles need
to be nouns, not verbs.
Peace,
Scott
