Re: PROV-ISSUE-259: hadTemporalExtent domain and range [Ontology]

I will be happy to close this issue when the group decides on a name change for temporal extents that are restricted to intervals and drops usage of hadTemporalExtent.

occurredDuring?

I am not sure what the domain of this property should be.  I am not entirely warm to Durable.
