Re: Last Call for Comments ... Re: proposal for updates to http://schema.org/Event

Hello,

1 - Do you think Event could be enriched with an "about" property ?
This would enable to better qualify the Event, as it is done for
CreativeWork
it would also solve the following point :
say "Festival de Cannes 2012" is  about the concept of "Festival de Cannes"
and not a sub event of "Festival de Cannes" concept

2 - We also miss a property enabling to relate an Event to a creativeWork.
It would be useful to be able to describe that the opera representation of
AIDA in NY in April 2011, is related to the creative Work AIDA by Verdi

Cheers
Jean
