Raised by: Richard Cyganiak
On product: SHACL Spec

Some people want to apply different shapes to the same class.
Some peope want to apply shapes to data that doesn't include type statements.
Some people want to associate shapes directly with class definitions.
Some people want to “inherit” shapes down existing class hierarchies.
Some people want to “specialise” shapes where there are no existing class hierarchies.
Some people don't want shapes to have anything to do with classes at all to avoid reinventing RDFS, badly.

No proposal seems to satisfy all people.
