Dear Dan,
Just to make sure that I fully understand the problem posed in the examples you
give, I will ask rather naively:

Is this the difference between
1. Groups who actually work together - not in the sense of detailling how often
they meet etc., but they create something specific (such as a work) together so
they work *at the same time*, and
2. Groups who are abstraction over persons filling an office *one after the
other in time*, so they cannot work together in the same sense as 1?
If so, we are talking about two somewhat different phenomena modelled in the
same way. Do I understand correctly that this is the rationale for your
suggested persona element, to be used in case 2?
Kind regards,
Øyvind
