Keep in mind that the work original known as DUL has moved in other directions (namely patterns). To the best of my recollection, DUL has not been maintained since 2010 or 2011 and there is (to the best of my knowledge) no governance structure in place. This broke the original SSN at some point (the URL went offline). If we want to have an official DUL alignment in whatever form, we should make sure we understand the issues and ontological commitments that come with it. What are the advantages of having a DUL alignment in the SSN domain? Best, Krzysztof P.s. Btw, since about 3-4 weeks, we started to go in circles and revisit issues we discussed in March.
