vivo:Committee #734

Open tawahle opened 7 years ago

tawahle commented 7 years ago

Hi! I wonder, why vivo:Committee as well as foaf:Group doesn't have the Affiliation property group? Both of the classes can be a kind of organization and they can also be affiliated as sub-organization to other ones. It would be also very usefull, if one could affiliate a committee to an event or even event series, as there are many conference series, which have steering committees, organizing and convening these events. We would propose as a common solution, that foaf:Group and vivo:Committee as its sub-class should also should have properties which are typical for other kinds of organizations. What is your opinion on that point? Thank you for your help in advance. Best Regards, Tatiana

It involves ontology class hierarchy change and requires some discussion. I see it as a High Impact Change.
