Inverse context creation, 4.3.2.3): what are the keys and values in active context? #630
In Inverse Context Creation (4.3.2), step 3 iterates over “key term and value term definition in the active context”. What does it mean? In 4.1, an active context is a product type, and the term definitions is one of the fields, as an array of term definitions.
you correctly assumed that this iteration of key-values concerns the terms definitions of the active context (as hinted by the name of the value). But...
the term definitions is one of the fields, as an array of term definitions.
This is indeed confusing. This should say that this is a map. And the definition of "term definition" in the terminology section should account for their internal representation described in Sec 4.1. Currently, it only describes their JSON/INFRA representation (which is applicable to "local context", but not to "active context", and yet the definition of "active context" points there).
I have just noticed that json-ld syntax has definitions for a context and expanded term definition (9.15, 9.15.1) that look very similar to the active context and term definition. Are they intended to be the same thing?

Hello!
I have just noticed that json-ld syntax has definitions for a context and expanded term definition (9.15, 9.15.1) that look very similar to the active context and term definition. Are they intended to be the same thing?
Best regards,
Vivien
