Henk,

I think there are some good things about prov-o but also some things we need to 
be careful of and, honestly, a lot of complexity that we are not yet ready for.
You will find that my proposed new abstract Agent class aligns both 
conceptually and term-wise with prov-o.
Unfortunately, going beyond that to align with prov-o at this point is likely 
to be fraught with risk. 
Prov-o has a conceptual wasGeneratedBy property that on the surface sounds like 
our createdBy property and we may be tempted to align to the prov-o name. 
However, it is important to note that the prov-o wasGeneratedBy property ties 
an Entity (Element) to an Activity rather than an Agent. It is part of the 
worldview presumption of prov-o that differs from ours at this point and 
potentially in the future.
This is an example of what I meant in my reply to Alexios' email when I 
mentioned existing models potentially bearing with them inappropriate 
complexities or commitments.

    Hi Sean,

    would it make sense to align the terminology used here with the terms 
    used in this W3C Recommendation?
