Re: Profiling of SHACL ontologies

Hello

If it helps:

   - SHACL Play documentation generator [1] reads a subset of SHACL
   statements to generation an application-profile-like documentation
   - The pattern used in Sparnatural SHACL-based configuration [2][3] is to
   set sh:deactivated on the imported shapes (node or properties) I want to
   hide. My understanding is that this subtractive approach is the only way,
   you cannot have an additive approach
   - I would very much be able to reuse and override not a shape but a
   *constraint* on a shape. Typically make a constraint more strict
   (sh:minCount not defined on imported shape, but set to 1 when reused
   locally) or relax a constraint (sh:minCount set to 1 on imported shape, but
   overwritten to 0 when used locally)
