Dear All, Here two proposals to change CRM Core:
A) Patrick Sinclair ([email protected])proposes to connect participants and types in the following way: <Participant> <Type name_space="http://www.getty.edu/research/conducting_research/ vocabularies/aat/">politicians</Type> <Identifier name_space="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/";>Churchill</ Identifier> </Participant> <Participant> <Type name_space="http://www.getty.edu/research/conducting_research/ vocabularies/aat/">politicians</Type> <Identifier name_space="http://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/">Franklin_Delano_Roosevelt</Identifier> </Participant> <Participant> <Type name_space="http://www.getty.edu/research/conducting_research/ vocabularies/aat/">politicians</Type> <Identifier name_space="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/";>Stalin</ Identifier> </Participant> As a consequence, the nesting level of CRM Core would become deeper , the creation of a network easier. In case only participant ids or only participant types are used, the encoding would become more heavy. B) The content model of Relation_Type was wrong. It should be a selection of fixed keywords: <!ELEMENT Relation_Type (has_part | part_of | refers_to | referred_to_by | shows_features_of)+> Depending on the Category, each one maps to a specific CRM property. Please comment.
