Martin/Steve,

Re-reading Steve's note, maybe he was objecting to olsc:Creation since it 
was in the oslc: namespace. If it's in the oslc-log: namespace, we can use 
Creation since it's meaning is scoped to the log namespace.

Regards,

Re: [oslc-core] Naming Conventions within ChangeLog proposal


+1 on log namespace. I know we're in the habit of using underscore instead 
of dash, but I don't like it much - can someone explain where that came 
from?

I don't understand the objection to oslc-log:Creation - maybe Steve can 
explain to me more before I vote.

Best regards, Martin

Steve,

+1 for the log namespace.

-1 for CreateEvent - there should be a standard meaning for resource 
creation.

Might I suggest a couple alternatives to these as well:

> oslc:create    -> oslc:Creation 
This seems too general, is this what we want all of OSLC Core to mean by 
Creation?

  -> oslc:CreateEvent
Include more descriptive noun, since in general core namespace

  -> oslc_log:Creation 
Same as proposed but included within some change log namespace

> oslc:update    -> oslc:Modification
> oslc:delete    -> oslc:Deletion
Same as above
