Dear Daria,
Continuing, I'd like to point you to the definition of "Contact Point".
I think it is consistent to regard networks as services,
and IP adresses as identifiers that can be resolved by a particular
service. Postal Adresses use to be the same in the aspect of resolution,
but simultaneously the endpoint they resolve to is traditionally(!) an
actual place, and actually in a way non-post office people can resolve.
The question of P.O. boxes is a border case. IP adresses resolve to
services again, but we do not have a "Service Name" class, as we do have
a "Place Name" class, and the resolution is less transparent and
persistently related to external entities, such as street names, city
names, country names.
I think "Contact Point" makes the generalization already you are asking for.
All the best,
martin

Dear Daria
Good morning,
I do not see the parallel between E53 Place and E45 Address with
IP-addresses and VPN.
In E53 Place we have a real-world place, typically a geographic extent
on the surface of the Earth (though not restricted to this as we know)
and in E45 Address we have a name for a place that is used in a
particular context (for example postal).
The parallel is closer to the relationship between MAC address and IP
address. VPNs are just different contexts within which to reuse the
names that are IP addresses.
We should remember that instances of E53 Place may be well known in
literature but not very well defined on the surface of the Earth; for
example the Site of the Battle of Thermopylae is well known but the
actual spatial extent is unknown (and actually, I would contend,
unknowable!). We may have many guesses or approximations about its
spatial extent and that is what the CRMgeo allows us to capture. We
may also have many names or appellations for it and these names may be
used in the real world for both the actual Site of the battle and for
various approximations. Life and language are so wonderfully rich!!
Best Regards
SdS

Dear all,
generalising examples we get the same situation with E53 Place and E45
Address like we have now with IP-addresses and VPN.
Real place with Internet-access can be somewhere on globe (GPS) and
others recieve coded numbers (Singapore, Any Islands...), which are
various in different time period.
Taking in account we work with digital heritage too, better to find
common decision in both cases, real and virtual.
With kind regards,
