Dear all, With the usual apologies for possibly having misunderstood or missed something. I propose that the scope note of E29 Design or Procedure changes from:
"... In particular it comprises plans for deliberate human activities that may result in the modification or production of instances of *E24 Physical Thing*..." to: "... In particular it comprises plans for deliberate human activities that may result in new instances of *E71 Man-Made Thing or E7 Activity*..." Reason for including E7: One of the current examples under E29 is: "the musical notation for Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy”" I do not see how the musical notation can result in the production of a physical thing. Also I think it is a contradiction to "P33 used specific technique" for which the domain is E7 Activity (and also to F25 Performance Plan which is a sub-class of E29 Design or Procedure). Reason for including E71: Consider the example of using a digital camera. I setup the camera following instructions. But when I shoot the image (as explained in CRMdig) I create a new information object and not a physical thing. Note: The current scope note says "may", but I take this to mean that a physical thing may or may not be produced, and not that it may or may not be a physical thing (i.e. to be something entirely different).
