ISSUE-46: Remove the "use" prefix from property names

shorter property names

Remove the "use" prefix from property names

State:
CLOSED
Product:
R2RML
Raised by:
David McNeil
Opened on:
2011-06-21
Description:
As part of ACTION-126, the class names were changed to remove the "Class" suffix and several property names were changed to include a "use" prefix. I believe it was better with the prior names. I suggest that it is preferable to use shorter names (and consistent names) in the properties since they will be used more often than class names.
