Re: QB4ST final issues

Hi Rob, Bill,

I prepared a pull request to improve Turtle code sections in the 
document, see:
https://github.com/w3c/sdw/pull/932

That pull request uses a different color scheme for the bits that define 
the ontology and the bits that link to examples, in particular.

This begs a question though: where is the QB4ST ontology normatively 
defined? Using my W3C glasses, I would have expected to find that 
definition in the spec. However, I see the "qb4st.ttl" file contains a 
few classes whose definitions do not appear in the spec, such as 
"qb4st:RefAreaMeasure", "qb4st:TemporalComponentSpecification" or 
"qb4st:SpatialDimensionComponentSpecification".

I would suggest to make section 6 "Vocabulary Reference" explicit that 
the normative definition of the QB4ST ontology is to be found in the 
qb4st.ttl file, and that the spec only contains excerpts.

Francois.
