discussion 2022-09-22 TDGW material sample workgroup
'specimen' has different connotations in some contexts-- implying that there is a preserved object somewhere. Need a more generic term.
proposal for discussion

  1. "Definition: Property to specify the kind of thing the material sample is.'
  2. change specimenType to materialSampleType.

this is copy of tdwg/material-sample#26
