Possession-related data review

nschneid opened this issue · 2 comments

  • In general, p.Possessor is only used as function if the scene role is also p.Possessor. But there are a few exceptions which may be inconsistencies.
  • Review p.Originator~>p.Gestalt. Some look like they should be p.Possessor because the governor is the entity, not the transfer event.

With scene=OrgRole there is a contrast between fxn=Possessor and fxn=Gestalt (documented in guidelines). Beneficiary~>Possessor is also allowed and documented.

Possessive + Money that we know has been transferred

Possessive + Item to be sold

Here 'she' refers to the store owner. If she did not design the clothes, but is merely selling them, is Possessor or Originator more appropriate? They are her property until sold. Possessor per carmls/snacs-guidelines#37
