Re: May a Specific Resource be object of the oa:hasScope relationship ?

Hi Rob,

sorry, did I raise some internal discussions about the right 
interpretation of the oa:hasScope to SpTarget construction within a SpBody ?

Otherwise, I would appreciate If you could make a statement if my 
interpretation of it's meaning is correct ("when the annotator created 
that SpBody, he was examining the SpTarget the oa:hasScope property 
connected with SpBody refers to") ?

Sorry, I don't want to push you, but we would need that information for 
our project internal discussion on how to finally realise our use case 
with OA.

best regards
Lutz
