Re: schema.org Series generalized, VideoGameSeries added for sdo-venkman release

For instance, eventually Richard is going to want what we have in Freebase called, a Book Edition Series...

Oh no he isn't! ;-)

This particular relationship is handled by exampleOfWork relationships from a generic CreativeWork to the individual edition instances.

Here's Literary Series in Freebase:

The only thing that is not already in CreativeWork is 'FictionalUniverse' which may actually be relevant to the TVS/Radio/VideoGame world as well.

So I would question the need for a specific LiterarySeries.

That is to say, series where the items in the series are particular editions of books -- these will generally all have the same publisher, and may have a uniform binding or other unifying features such as all having the same illustrator or series editor. For series of books (i.e., series where you can say that any edition is part of the series), use the type Literary Series."

Here's Literary Series in Freebase: https://www.freebase.com/book/literary_series?schema=&lang=en  "A literary series is any series of written works (books, plays, stories, poems, essays, articles, etc.). Examples of things that could use this type include: novels or stories that share a setting or characters; a sonnet cycle; articles or essays published in a recurring column; a series of yearly anthologies."
