I've been working on a credit system for the web ( webcredits.org ) for a while and I thought I would reuse the the commerce vocabulary, in particular the Transfer class. https://payswarm.com/vocabs/commerce#Transfer However having thought about it for some time I think perhaps this is better modelled in its own class. Maybe something like "Credit" like a credit system of IOUs that can model both an IOU and individual credits (eg in a game or a ledger). The mandatory fields would be: destination -- who has the credits amount -- how many currency -- which currency This would be enough to create a ledger (as per my post yesterday). To specifically show who the IOU was from (either by way of log or transaction) source -- who the credit came from Optionally two other fields could be useful time -- for a timestamp (though systems like bitcoin only add a timestamp after accepted) comment -- a note explaining that entry Im thinking of updating the web credits spec http://www.w3.org/community/webpayments/wiki/Web_Credits along these lines. Do you think it would be possible to add a Credit entry to the commerce vocab?
