Re: Question regarding the Organization Ontology

Hi Anne

What I do for that kind of situation is to make distinct classes "Position"
and "Post" (or Job, whatever you want to name it)

:Anne :positionHeld :Position12345
:Position12345  :beginDate "2012-10-01"
:Position12345  :endDate "2013-12-31"
:Position12345  :postHeld  :PostX
:Position12345  :employer :OrgY

:Position12345 is actually an "Event"
:PostX is qualifying the "Position type" or "Job", e.g.; "Chief Technical
Officer" "Documentalist" etc.

You can relate successive positions held by the same person using something
like http://vocab.org/bio/0.1/.html

My 0.02
