Re: PROV-ISSUE-44 (shortcuts): Introduce widely used provenance concepts as shortcuts in the model [Conceptual Model]

Hi Luc,

I think there has been some discussion of this: 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-prov-wg/2011Dec/0109.html

I think wasSummaryOf should be removed. I can raise this as a separate 
issue.

I agree that ISSUE-44 should be closed.

Regards,
Paul

For practical use and uptake, it would be good to have definitions of these in the provenance model. These concepts should be defined in terms of the already existing "core" concepts. Below I list several and their definitions along with some justification for their introduction. Note, what these allow are simple provenance assertions that are compatible with the more complex model that we have been devising.
