Re: [dxwg] Link to the Resource Roles vocab in the Profiles Ont doc

Yes, the SSN ont has such an extension. The Reference to the SOSA document wasn't to suggest that Roles might be a module within PROF - just a vocab -  but the reference was just to show another W3C document referring to non-normative individuals in examples.

> it would be legitimate that the roles to be used with it appear in the core
It would indeed be legitimate but is it preferable? I think not, given the static nature (after completion) of the ontology but the dynamic nature of an extensible roles list.

> If you had a (non-normative) set of classes 
Indeed. You would see that a `Resource Descriptor` should indicate a `Resource Role`, and that's normative, but then the specific `Resource Role` individual chose for an instance could be one of any in a non-normative vocabulary.

I don't anticipate "a (non-normative) set of classes and properties specifically dedicated to describe roles with more details" really, just a listing of individual Roles (with SKOS properties such as prefLabel etc.) but it's just a vocab, not an ontology module.
