[earl] name, email and tools

Hi folks,

we have just about completed the EARL output for Hera 
<http://www.sidar.org/hera>

We were wondering if an earl:Tool can have an earl:email (I have been 
using foaf:mbox to identify assertors, but I think we will use both 
earl:name and earl:email and foaf:name and foaf:mbox now).

In general is it a good idea to keep the name and email properties in 
the EARL schema? It seems to me that we are better off moving them out, 
or defining them as being properties of tools, and using foaf:Person to 
identify assertors who are people.

earl:Person is a subclass of Assertor, as is earl:Tool. I think we'd be 
better off saying that an earl:Assertor has a range that includes 
foaf:Person and earl:Tool.

whaddaya think?

cheers
