split skos:example, consider skos:scopeNote and skos:related

[VladimirAlexiev]

Examples are very useful to understand the nature of a lookup.

For example (I've used turtle """ so I can use newlines instead of the ugly \n):

cbv:Disp-active  a        cbv:Disp ;
        rdfs:comment      "A commissioned object has just been introduced into the supply chain."@en ;
        skos:example      """Manufacturer A commissions tags for 10 cases of product.
A virtual document has been assigned an EPC
Business step: \n- `commissioning`"""@en .

• I think examples are subject to data normalization, just like other data. So it's better to split skos:example to multiple values
• The last part of the comment is not an example, so it should be moved to a different field. skos:scopeNote fits this purpose perfectly

cbv:Disp-active  a        cbv:Disp ;
        rdfs:comment      "A commissioned object has just been introduced into the supply chain."@en ;
        skos:example      "Manufacturer A commissions tags for 10 cases of product.",
                          "A virtual document has been assigned an EPC." ;
        skos:scopeNote    "Business step: \n- `commissioning`"""@en .

However, it's even better to turn skos:scopeNote into a machine-readable triple:

cbv:Disp-active  
       skos:related       cbv:BizStep-commissioning.

skos:related is normally used with skos:Concept but we can twist the purpose a bit and use it here

• Similarly, https://github.com/gs1/EPCIS/WebVoc uses skos:related (and skos:broaderMatch etc) to map classes and props to other ontologies
• All CBV lookup values might be better off represented as skos:Concept (but this issue does not propose it)

Thanks - I'm happy to make better use of skos:scopeNote or skos:related within the ontology browser tool. Adding to my to-do list.

@CraigRe Do you also agree to structure these pieces of CBV documentation into separate fields? Mark it agreed. Then ONTO can make the changes to CBV.ttl, and Mark can adjust the ontology browser. (I think this applies only to CBV not EPCIS.)
