Issue 10859: Name as instance (odm-ftf) Source: NIST (Dr. Conrad Bock, conrad.bock(at)nist.gov) Nature: Clarification Severity: Critical Summary: Name as instance. In Section 16.2.2 (Class and Property - Basics), paragraph underneath Table 16.5, the second sentence says a name can be an instance, but a name is usually a property or a string, not an instance. The third sentence says if name is the identifer, then "the remainder of the slots could be filled dynamically from other properties of the class". What does dynamically mean? It appears this is going into relational modeling, like the previous section does. Resolution: Delete paragraph underneath table 16.5.
