7. Issues  Interoperability of classes (domain entities)  Resource; WEMI, Document, Collection  Synchronization of unconstrained properties  “Relates a resource to a resource that describes a described entity.”  Property refinement; e.g. “has translator”  “has translator person”  “has translator family”  “has translator corporate body”
