Re: PROV-ISSUE-231 (TLebo): Remove owl:Time from prov-o [Ontology]

Luc,

<ProP_response>
We don't want to use:

:activity
     prov:startedAt "2012-02-02T18:06:40-05:00";
     prov:endedAt "2012-02-02T18:09:40-05:00";
.

because it would confuse Time with Events, which I understand to be a concern in DM.

OWL Time uses xsd:dateTime in the right place -- as a description of a time:Instant.
The time:Instant (prov:Instant?) approach permits us to assert ordering among the time-annotated events.

<ScrufP_response>
The following modeling is exactly what we want - simple, direct, and useful!

:activity
     prov:startedAt "2012-02-02T18:06:40-05:00";
     prov:endedAt "2012-02-02T18:09:40-05:00";
.
