SBVR11 — Simplification of presentation of Annex E

The value of a comprehensive and coherent SBVR example seems to be generally accepted, but there have been some concerns expressed about the size and complexity of the EU-Rent example (Annex E).
Section E.2.2.1.1 Car Movement is a particular problem. It is presented first in the detail of EU-Rent‘s vocabulary but is quite complex. It introduces the idea of ‘car movement’, a component that is used in two different contexts ­ as part of the definition of a rental, and as part of the definition of a logistical car movement made by a EU-Rent employee.
Annex E could be made more digestible, without substantially changing its content, by:
1) Presenting the sections in a different sequence, with sections that introduce simpler ideas presented earlier.
2) Presenting ‘car movement’ in a simpler form
This issue can be resolved alongside Issue 10628: Align Annex E with the normative text.
To avoid delay in updating the SBVR specification, updating EU-Rent to comply with the SBVR Date-Time Vocabulary is outside the scope of this issue, and will be addressed later.

The updated version of Annex E that is attached implements all the points in the above summary of this Issue. Timing permitted the inclusion of the concepts adopted from the Date-Time Vocabulary by this EU-Rent Example.
This updated Annex E aligns with the normative text and has been validated by the same software that is used to import the normative SBVR Structured English text for SBVR and Date-Time Vocabulary specifications and produce their machine readable files.
The reorganization of Annex E so that the concepts build on each other for easier understanding required much movement of vocabulary entries from one part of the Annex to another. Because of this, it is not feasible to present the updates to Annex E as either typical editing instructions or a change-tracked Word document. The moves all show as deletions from the old spot and insertions in the new spot even if the content is not changed
