Dear all,

Do you agree with substituting the current phrasing concerning transitivity
and symmetry in CIDOC CRM v7.3 for the one proposed by Martin, Wolfgang,
and Christian-Emil?

*Namely: *
the bullet point under *Naming Conventions* that now reads:

   - "Properties that have identical domain and range are either symmetric
   or transitive. Instantiating a symmetric property implies that the same
   relation holds for both the domain-to-range and the range-to-domain
   directions. An example of this is E53 Place. *P122 borders with*: E53
   Place. The names of symmetric properties have no parenthetical form,
   because reading in the range-to-domain direction is the same as the
   domain-to-range reading. Transitive asymmetric properties, such as E9
   Period.*P9 consists of (forms part of)*: E4 Period, have a parenthetical
   form that relates to the meaning of the inverse direction."


would become:

   - "The names of symmetric properties have no parenthetical form, because
   reading in the range-to-domain direction is the same as the domain-to-range
   reading. An example of this is E53 Place. *P122 borders with*: E53
   Place. See the definition of "symmetric" in the section "Terminology"."


The motivation is that the wording found under Naming Conventions in V7.3
is inaccurate, and the reason to delete the reference to transitive,
asymmetric properties, seeing as the information is repeated in the
*Terminology* section --see definitions therein.

*Please reply by yes, no, or N/A by March 22. *

All the best,
Eleni
