Issue 6022: The title of the Property description on page 144 (uml2-superstructure-ftf)
Source:  (, )
Nature: Clarification
Severity: Significant
Summary: The title of the Property description on page 144 says: "Property (from InternalStructures, as specialized)". I believe this should say: "Property (from Kernel, as specialized)". 

Here's why: there is as yet no indication of any kind of relationship between Property as defined as part of the Superstructure Kernel and Property as described in InternalStructures. There are some hints that such a relationship exists, but it isn't clear. Either the relationship should be explicitly stated (ir a relationship exists), or it should be explicitly stated that no such relationship exists.

March 9, 2005: closed issue
Discussion: 
In this context, “specialized” means that the metaclass InternalStructures::Property is
specialized from an inherited metaclass Properety, in this case, Kernel::Property. While
the text gives no indication from where a metaclass is specialized, this is done so
throughout the document. A glance at the mdl file would also reveal the superclass.
Disposition: Closed, no change
