[Oslc-pm] questions and comments on the Performance Monitoring spec and example RDF/XML - 11

[Julianne Bielski]

If no one objects, I'm going to settle on 1:1.

> Julie responded: Will do. 

...and then (yet later) a bit more of an exchange occurred 

In the Common Properties table for Performance Monitoring Record, the 
Occurs property value for oslc:serviceProvider is zero-or-many which is 
contradictory to 'oslc:serviceProvider property must be provided. Any idea 
why these are out of sync? 

Julie responded:  Would like John's feedback here. 

John adds: 
11: oslc:serviceProvider 0:* sounds like a copy/paste typo.  0:1 is what 
I'd always expect, everywhere.  Actually I'd expect 1:1 almost always, 
since I cannot think of a case where one lacks a SP aside from the "barely 
interesting in an OSLC sense" case of a resource that expects to be 
located via non-OSLC means.  Which is technically allowed, but seems like 
an edge case not the sort of general expectation I'd set in a domain spec. 
 So I'm fine with 0:1 (following the Principle of Least Surprise, it's 
most like other domain specs in existence today) or 1:1 (we think it's 
required for PM, if that's the case - I do confess I cannot thing of 
anything in the scenarios actually requiring it; the WG will have to 
decide if that's "working as intended" or shows a gap in the scenarios). 
Best Regards, John
