Re: PROV-O ontology comments

Hi Jun,
Good points! I have tried to address them in the updated owl file. Some
comments are interleaved:

There are also some other object properties appear odd to me:

as Association (subclass of QualifiedInvolvement)

QualifiedInvolvement to an Entity.

domain and range, they inherit the corresponding domain and range.

Yes, the majority of these are properties are to model the DM "common
relations" Section 6. I believe many of them are under discussion and some
may be removed (e.g. summary).

Thanks.
