Table of Contents

The Cert Ontology at a glance

An a-z index of Cert Ontology terms, by class (categories or types) and by property.

%s

The evolution of the Cert Ontology is best considered in terms of the stability of individual vocabulary terms, rather than the specification as a whole. As terms stabilise in usage and documentation, they progress through the categories 'unstable', 'testing' and 'stable'. Older terms are marked 'archaic' which allows the possibility of older forms to become modern again.
