@vholland any comments?

Main concern for me is that InstructionSet sounds like computer hardware chips. We can always tweak "outcome" if needed, but the definition will be vague.

I have similar issues with InstructionSet, but don't have good ideas for an alternative. HowToInstructions seems odd.

I'm a little confused by supplies and instructionSupplies.

• Do we need both? We should be able to infer whether the supplies apply to the instructions as a whole or an individual step based on the property subject.
• Do those properties need to accept an ItemList? If the supplies themselves don't need to be ordered, authors should be able to repeat the property or use an array as appropriate.

Some other options:

• HowToGuide
• SetOfInstructions
• Guide
• Tasks

I'm a little confused by supplies and instructionSupplies.

I can use supplies throughout. I should also update the PR to use estimatedCost throughout instead of estimatedSupplyCost.

Do those properties need to accept an ItemList? If the supplies themselves don't need to be ordered, authors should be able to repeat the property or use an array as appropriate.

Being a bit of a schema.org newb I don't know the right answer to this :D happy to defer to whatever you guys think is most appropriate.

Sorry to jump in on the conversation uninvited, but I've been looking on schema.org for something for how-to pages and this InstructionSet looks like it would fit the bill. Is this pull request still going ahead since it's been in the works for a while?

I'd toss in "InstructionManual" and second "HowToGuide" as suggestions for the type name.

I haven't had time to work on it. @dbiollo if you're interested in picking it up that would be awesome.

I believe this was handled by http://schema.org/HowTo http://schema.org/docs/releases.html#g647 #647 #1616
