Issue 10908: Individuals, mapping (odm-ftf) Source: NIST (Mr. Conrad Bock, conrad.bock(at)nist.gov) Nature: Revision Severity: Critical Summary: Individuals, mapping. Section 16.4.1.1 (Mapping for Individuals), first sentence says the profile (Chapter 14) represents individuals as a singleton class. This is incorrect. The profile models individuals as instance specifications. To give property values to the individual, the profile uses a singleton class. Section 16.4.1.1 incorrectly concludes that individuals should not be mapped, which affects 16.4.1.2 (Mapping for Enumerated Classes) and Section 16.4.13 (Annotation Properties to Comments). Resolution: Revised Text: Actions taken: March 30, 2007: received issue Discussion: FTF resources were scarce and priority was given to issues against normative sections, hence many issues such as this were left unresolved.
