[Odrl-version2] Core Model ["Poznan Edition"] - Draft Specification

[Daniel Pähler]

Dear all,

I think there is a problem with the definition of "Rights Container" in 
Section 3.3 of the current draft specification [1]. The definition states 
that

"The Container entity may tie Permission, Prohibition, Duty, and Constraint 
entities together with an AND, OR or XOR relationship."

This implies that it cannot tie other entities. However, the example in figure 
3.1 below shows a Container which aggregates two Actions.

I suggest changing the Definition to 

"The Container entity may tie entities together with an AND, OR or XOR 
relationship."

and adding the sentence 

"Typically the container structure is used to aggregate Permission, 
Prohibition, Duty, and Constraint entities but can be used on other 
entities."

,which is basically like the last sentence of the Container definition in ODRL 
v1.1, section 2.12 [2].

Yours,
Daniel
