shapes-ISSUE-209 (What is a shape?): What is a shape [SHACL Spec] http://www.w3.org/2014/data-shapes/track/issues/209 Raised by: Karen Coyle On product: SHACL Spec Peter's mail: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-shapes/2016Oct/0029.html "Just what are shapes? The terminology section says: "Shape A shape is a node in a shapes graph that is typically a SHACL instance of sh:Shape. A shape provides a collection of targets, filters, constraints and parameters of constraint components that specify how a data graph is validated against the shape. Shapes can also provide non-validating information, such as labels and comments." Section 2 says: "Shapes define constraints that a set of focus nodes can be validated against." This doesn't, however, provide guidance in determining what the shapes in a shapes graph are." (more in the email)
