Issue 145, proposal for electronic vote

Proposal for electronic vote:

Rationale for proposed change 

The resource shape referenced in an
oslc:QueryCapability does not distinguish between properties that might
appear in members found by the query and that may specified in an oslc.select
parameter, from properties that may be queried and specified in an oslc.where
parameter.

Proposed change to core vocabulary

https://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/browse/wsvn/oslc-core/trunk/specs/core-vocab.html

Add new term for oslc:queryable as follows:

http://open-services.net/ns/core#queryable

queryable is an RDF property.

true if the property is queryable through
being specified in an oslc.where parameter (see
https://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/browse/wsvn/oslc-core/trunk/specs/oslc-query.html).
If omitted, or set to true, then the property is queryable. 

Proposed change to draft query spec,
section 6

https://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/browse/wsvn/oslc-core/trunk/specs/oslc-query.html

Section 6, approve the following proposed
last paragraph:

The resource shape referenced by oslc:valueShape
in the query result container's resource shape SHOULD declare the
properties that can be used in oslc.select and optionally oslc.where. OSLC
properties that have a oslc:queryable "false"^^xsd:boolean value
cannot be specified in oslc.where. Where a member resource supports nested
properties, for example, the foaf:name of a dcterms:creator, the member
resource shape MAY provide a oslc:valueShape for that property.
When specified, this allows clients to discover nested properties that
might be used.
