Re: PROV-ISSUE-4 (define-agent): Definition for Concept 'Agent' [Provenance Terminology]

Hi all,
I have also added a definition for Agent:
"Agent is an entity that is causally linked to a process. Agent may be
linked to execution of a process (stop/start/modify) or definition of a
process (e.g. author of a workflow)."

Thanks.

Best,
Satya
