Re: shapes-ISSUE-201 (node target): how does node target specify targets for a shape? [SHACL Spec]

I would switch 'define' and 'specify' and change the language slightly:

"A node target is specified using the sh:targetNode predicate. A value
of sh:targetNode
can be an IRI or a literal. Each value of a node target identifies a node
in the data graph to be validated against a shape that is the subject of
the triple."
