on the closing of ISSUE-163

>From Section 4.6.1 of Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) W3C Editor's Draft 27
September 2016 at http://w3c.github.io/data-shapes/shacl

"sh:equals constrains a pair of properties so that the sets of values of both
properties at a given focus node must be equal."

This contradicts the claim in
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-data-shapes-wg/2016Sep/0046.html
that ``constraint is still used, but no more "constrain" or "constraining". So
it's a thing, but not a verb.''

There is a total of six uses of "constrains" in the document.


The working group appears to have closed ISSUE-163 based on incorrect information.
