It was added to IdAS to appease people. It has no actual value that I'm aware of. If we decide to remove it, I vote for doing so at the same time we remove the I*Model interfaces.

There is no need to change IdAS.
The total set of concepts in CDM have NOT changed so there’s no need to change IdAS. However, there are two sets of concepts in the Context Data Model I’ve refactored higgins.owl so that only the first set, namely the concepts that can be directly modeled in OWL are in that file. The second set of CDM concepts that can be described in OWL, but not directed modeled in OWL are now in a separate file.

Does it also mean BlankEntity interface will not be removed from IdAS API?
Thanks, Sergey Lyakhov
