1. Introduction

This section is non-normative.

RDF vocabularies define the terms and resources for a domain of interest, life-cycle management in the case of OSLC Change Management. These vocabularies are often specified in an open manner, without providing information such as property domain and range assertions, cardinalities, etc. This helps keep the vocabulary applicable for a wide range of uses and furthering integration with other vocabularies.

However, it is often desirable to closed down a vocabulary with specific constraints to facilitate using the vocabulary for a specific purpose. This document specifies the constraints for using the OSLC Change Management vocabulary in OSLC. Different sets of constraints may be applied to a vocabulary in order to tailor its use, without overly constraining the vocabulary for other usages.

These constraints apply to the core vocabulary defined in OSLC Change Management Version 3.0. Part 2: Vocabulary.

Fig. 1 OSLC Change Management 3.0 Overview

1.1 Terminology

Terminology is based on OSLC Core Overview [OSLCCore3], W3C Linked Data Platform [LDP], W3C's Architecture of the World Wide Web [WEBARCH], Hyper-text Transfer Protocol [HTTP11].

1.3 Typographical Conventions and Use of RFC Terms

As well as sections marked as non-normative, all authoring guidelines, diagrams, examples, and notes in this specification are non-normative. Everything else in this specification is normative.

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this specification are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.

In addition to the namespace URIs and namespace prefixes oslc, rdf, dcterms and foaf defined in the OSLC Core specification, OSLC CM defines the namespace URI of http://open-services.net/ns/cm# with a namespace prefix of oslc_cm

This specification also uses these namespace prefix definitions:

2. Change Management Resource Constraints

Property value types that are not defined in the following sections, are defined in OSLC Core - Defining OSLC Properties

Naming convention for relationship properties follows this pattern:

2.1 Resource: ChangeRequest

The Change Request resource properties are not limited to the ones defined in this specification, service providers may provide additional properties. It is recommended that any additional properties exist in their own unique namespace and not use the namespaces defined in these specifications.
