Re: Eurocentrism, incorrect unit abbreviations, and proprietary Royalist Engish (sic) terms

It's the same as the earlier structure I proposed but with Individual
renamed to Rentable, typical usage would be a campground with many rentable
campsites. It compares to https://schema.org/docs/hotels.html in the
following way Dan:

Place
    Accommodation
        RentableCampsite
        Room
            HotelRoom
    Campsite
        Campground
        RentableCampsite
    LocalBusiness
        LodgingBusiness
            Campground
            Hotel

Organization
    LocalBusiness
        LodgingBusiness
            Campground
            Hotel


I'm from Australia and live in California and in my experience the numbered
areas are referred to as campsites. Here is a government page that uses
"campsite" in this way many times, even referring to a more specific type
of campsite - a family campsite ("Family campsites accommodate up to eight
(8) people.", www.parks.ca.gov/camping).

But anyway like I said, it's not about a preference for British or American
English, it's about how to approach regions of space or time when larger
regions can be made of smaller regions describable using the same term.

How does it break the GoodRelations model Martin? In any case I'm not
proposing having GTIN at the level of Thing but it would be a fantastic
approach anyway, it would be similar to what we currently have with
faxNumber at the level of Place. But I know Product isn't going anywhere so
don't worry even I would hate to open that can of worms right now.
