Identity and normative owner

Editions

  • 1.2 Core, 2026-08-03 publication: W3C Working Draft. Dated Working Draft observed via the source page, not an immutable byte snapshot or latest-publication guarantee.

Distributions and references

  • shacl12-documentation — documentation, text/html, en. Rights are assessed per distribution in the record. Unassessed rights do not imply permission to redistribute.

Verification scope

  • metadata-observed (2026-09-17): Primary-source page metadata observed; no distribution bytes, legal clearance, current-latest guarantee, or implementation conformance was verified.

Cautions

  • The observed publication is a Working Draft, not a Recommendation. It must not silently replace an explicitly adopted SHACL 2017 Recommendation.
  • The unversioned entrypoint may change; adoption requires an exact release and dependency closure.
