ISSUE-35: semantics of symbol spaces

semantics of symbol spaces

State:
CLOSED
Product:
Technical Design (multiple dialects/documents)
Raised by:

Opened on:

Description:
it is not entirely clear what is meant with
\"semantics of a symbol space\". It\'s also not clear what is meant with
\"value space is fixed\". If the semantics of a symbol space defines the
value space, then how can the value space not be \"fixed\"? Furthermore, I
do not see the use of associating a value space with a symbol space.
I propose to amend the definitions as follows:
The symbol space consists of a lexical space and one (or possibly more)
URI(s) which identify it (as it is currently defined). A datatype is a
symbol space which additionally includes a value space and a lexical to
value mapping (where the value space and lexical to value mapping are as
currently defined).
