Hi Bruce,
Yeah, I know.
Let's try this. I'm going to try to link this into the FRBR world view.
Document: a written, transcribed, or recorded manifestation of a work
typically intended to communicate some intellectual or artistic
information or ideas.
Collection: a collection of documents
By this definition, an edited book or a proceeding both qualify as
documents because those objects are themselves manifestations. OTOH, I
think one could say they also qualify as collections because they each
contain separate documents (unlike, say, an authored book, which only
contains sub-documents parts like chapters).
We could say, then, that edited books and proceedings are both
subclasses of a union of Document and Collection. E.g. they are
neither one nor the other, but both.
so, you are suggesting to create a bibo:EditedBook and to change the
bibo:Proceeding such that they are the subclass of the union of
bibo:Document and bibo:Collection?
This is what I was floating as essentially a strawman (e.g. I'm not sure
about it), though Proceeding would be a subclass of EditedBook.
This could work, but please describe bibo:EditedBook to make sure that
This is Clear! :)
Right. Does anyone else have opinions on this?
Bruce
