Re: Please vote on ISSUE-211

Hi Karen,

if we keep sh:property in the language the syntax will be 100% identical
with the current syntax,
if we decide to drop sh:property, we will use sh:shape instead.
So, there will be very little to no change in the current syntax /
structure of shapes

this change in the metamodel will result in a simplication of the
definitions in section 2.
This will enable some SHACL constructs like targets to be used in what we
have now as PropertyConstraints,
so, this change additionally enables some new shape structures / syntax
that are now forbidden with prose in the spec.

I also agree with Irene that ~90% of the users will not use the new enabled
shortcuts.
For the rest 10%, personally I find it more intuitive with this proposal
and I feel like  the simplification in the spec further justifies it
