As a matter of interest, how would you explain our business-facing views of the ontology to a business audience without using either technical terms nor academic words? I am sure my efforts can be improved upon.

Also what would you do to make it clearer that Section 6 is not the introduction? This material was originally in an annex, clearly marked as being for a business audience and explaining the jargon-free business views that we provide. Someone at the OMG suggested that this was a more accessible introduction than the more technically correct material in the introduction so we moved it, but I see that the material setting out the intended audience for each section has not been noticed.

Hello Ray,

I bet that without Pat, there would have been no progress at all. He created
the most relevant message of the thread. He was the one that cared to examine
others work and point errors out as such. Do you have an abundance of such
people? I perceive them as rare.

Maybe the rest of the ontology is useful (I did not look at it). But someone
familiar with the fundamentals who reads such an introduction has a good
reason not to read any further.
