This is an update to the original proposal PR (#1163) - A Pull Request constituting a proposal for a FIBO extension to Schema.org from the Financial Industry Business Ontology Community Group.

Changes from original:

• Proposing a prerelease move into pending.schema.org
• Moving ServiceChannel specific proposals into a separate proposal - PR(Add serviceEmail, serviceTextChat, serviceMobileApp to ServiceChannel #1298)
• Update property names to be more focused on the area they are used.

The schema changes look good.

Examples: Lets use fictitious entities in our examples.

No problem on the fictional examples.

Will update these in next couple of days and also resolve the merge conflict.

My review notes:

• PR includes a needless (and conflicting) sdoapp.py edit - can you remove that please?
• let's put this into pending.schema.org first, with a view to moving it along towards a hosted extension subdomain a release or two after that.
• I would prefer its eventual home to be under something like "finance.schema.org". We have merged in contributions from BBC, EBU, MusicBrainz, GoodRelations, GS1 and many others in previous releases without creating a project-or-collaboration-acronym-based subdomain. I appreciate the desire for fibo.schema.org but I suggest it is better to keep collaboration and derivation acknowledgments elsewhere (in human-facing text and in machine definitions, but not in subdomains).

Hi Dan,
Sorry for late reply. We will remove the edit and we are also making our examples fictional (after Guha's request).
As for placing it into pending - that's great and this is exactly what we expected to happen. Thanks !

When it comes to the change to the name of the extension, I hope it will not be a problem for the other members of the community which brought the concept of the extension to life. I will start my consultations asap.

BTW, I just got info from Richard that the requested changes has been made! Thanks Richard !

Now issues raised by Guha have been addressed, can we merge this now.

@danbri, @RichardWallis, what is the next step? Is there anything FIBO community can do to move the FIBO extension from "pending" towards a hosted extension?

I'm aware about reservations to move the extension to the one named by "fibo". Indeed, living between the two worlds, I must admit we had long lasting difficulties with the FIBO team to give us proper, canonical FIBO URIs, so that we could amend the extension documentation and have a "hard link" between the extension and the ontology. However, as it is more problematic for teh extension to stay in "pending" for so long, than having a permanent name, maybe we would indeed go for finance.schema.org for the upcoming edition? Is it possible?
