Hi all,

Three things:

1. I've just updated the above wiki page to encourage the use of
GoodRelations to describe the manufacturer of something.[1] I've also
suggested using OpenCorporates URIs for manufacturers.


2. Do we have a way to model multiple instances of the same thing as a
group? At the moment we have:

:equipment a cerif:Equipment, gr:Individual .

If there's more than one, should we do something like:?

:equipment a cerif:Equipment, gr:SomeItems ;
  gr:hasInventoryLevel [ a gr:QuantitativeValue ; gr:hasValue 5 ]

(According to the UML diagram[2], it's arguable that we have to use
gr:QuantitativeValueFloat and gr:hasValueFloat, which seems a bit messy)


3. There's been talk in the SEESEC project of controlled vocabularies
for 'service level', and I think there should also be a CV for whether
something is shareable. According to SEESEC, terms in the "service
level" vocab should be:

- -Fully serviced = E.g. results provided on behalf of users.

- -Technician assisted = E.g. technician on hand to help user produce
results.

- -Technician assisted & training required = E.g. technician on hand to
help user produce results, but prior training also required.

- -Facility/Equipment only = E.g. users can turn up and use the
facility/equipment without assistance.

Does anyone object if I SKOSify this under e.g.
http://purl.org/openorg/service-level/ ? Chris: Would it be possible
to set up some de-referenceability for this?

For "shareability", how about:

* not shareable outside of organizational unit
* not shareable outside of formal organization
* shareable with other organizations
* "it depends; ask"

Obviously, none of these would be binding. We could get as complicated
as SAML assertions, but that's probably a bad idea.

If people are happy, shall I SKOSify this one too? (with a target of
e.g. http://purl.org/openorg/shareability/)


Yours,

Alex
