Re: [web-annotation] Multiple Selectors

Hi all, 

@iherman, about the domain for oa:hasSelector, I was not suggesting to
 define it using a formal language, just make a note in the spec.... 
btw, is there such formal definition in RDFS or perhaps OWL? but, just
 a note that the domain could just be open without the need to 
prescribe either oa:SpecificResource or oa:Selector as rdfs:domain.

for the discussions on the stating the @type explicitly or implicit 
(entailed by one of the properties), my concern is for data consumers 
that are not applying RDF technology and thus may be expecting the 
@type to help determine how they will interpret and process the 
remaining structure... the @type may also play a important role for 
data consistency/validation as different clients/implementations may 
apply different modelling patterns but also may have miss-interpreted 
the spec and used it in a way that it is not expected... I would thus 
vote to keep it as much as possible even though it may become slightly
 more verbose.

Finally, I would add as another cons for the solution I proposed, that
 it would require twice the nesting (because of the additional 
SpecicResource in between) comparing with the simple nesting of 
selectors.
