ODRL Semantics

Regarding semantics, I want to see if it is possible to address the level above the rules and have the policies within the scope of the conversation.

 

In my understanding, I see a gap in the description of the differences between the subclasses of odrl:Policy, mostly: what is the correct lifecycle (especially in the ‘loop’ which I’ve named ‘RecombineEvent’ back from an Agreement to future Set).

 

I’ve attempted to describe my interpretation as follows:

 
A Set is at its simplest a collection of rules.
An Offer is a list of rules that an odrl:Assigner is preparing or already ‘offering’ to a potential market of odrl:Assignee.
An Agreement is the start of a commercial event between (at least) an odrl:Assigner and odrl:Assignee.
 

Further:
For simplicity, odrl:Agreement renewals are not considered.
Where allowed, an odrl:Assignee can take an agreement and base future supply chain odrl:Offering, becoming an odrl:Assigner on such offerings.
