RDF-ISSUE-178: CR comment: RDF 1.1: "Some properties may change over time." [RDF Concepts] http://www.w3.org/2011/rdf-wg/track/issues/178 Raised by: Thomas Baker On product: RDF Concepts Raised on the mailing list: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2013Dec/0084.html ------------ A minor point, but the wording of the following bullet point in Section 5 of Concepts [1] seems ambiguous: Some properties may change over time. A relationship that holds between two resources at one time may not hold at another time. The first sentence can too easily be read as saying that properties _themselves_ change, whereas: "An IRI, once minted, should never change its intended referent". Perhaps something like the following is intended: A relationship that holds between two resources at one time (i.e., a property) may not hold at another time. This fits with the earlier characterization of a property as "a resource that can be thought of as a binary relation".
