Dear All,Attached our first trial to provide guidelines for scope note writing. Implicitly, this constitutes a theory what the "intension" of a class is about.
For classes, we base this on related work by Nicola Guarino on identity and unity, and on David Wiggins about absolute identity, and on our own observations in CRM-SIG about the relevance of existence and potential.
For properties, this appears to be new land.The attached guidelines are also a result of analyzing much debated scope notes in the CRM. However, most scope notes in the CRM text are less analytical and stand improvement. This does not necessarily mean to become more verbose. Multiple aspects proposed in these guidelines may be implicit or obvious in a simple phrase.
