Re: what is a valid PROV extension?

Hi Tom

good idea but the validator works on PROV documents, not on the ontology, right? so you’d be able to check any doc that uses extensions, rather than reason on the ontology itself.

using the wiki to record known extensions seems like a good idea

Cheers, -Paolo

Can anyone who designs an extension claim to have done so correctly with impunity? In fact, should there be a repository of “official” extensions (if that has any meaning give the above)?
