>> the RDF representation of T SHOULD satisfy the OSLC Domain specification that defines T.
Have you thought about what this means for versioning? Does this mean the 2.0 version of the OSLC specification? All past and future versions? I think this will open a can of worms. I think we should make the opposite statement - that when something says it is of some OSLC type, this carries no guarantees whatever. Caveat emptor.

However, our desire is that types be used in a predictable way. I am recommending that we add an explicit statement to our spec to avoid "capricious" use of OSLC-defined types. We don't "enforce" this via an ontology so we need to provide explicit guidance in the Core spec.

I thought you argued against this point today, saying that you can only make that sort of inference when you that a resource is provided by a service that implements an OSLC specification. - Dave ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Oslc-Core mailing list [email protected] http://open-services.net/mailman/listinfo/oslc-core_open-services.net End of Oslc-Core Digest, Vol 11, Issue 24 *****************************************
