Mary Jane:
The GENTECH Lexicon Working Group did the data modeling and defined the term
"persona." See http://www.gentech.org/gdm/
I think Jerry was proposing "hypothetical person" as an easily understood
working equivalent, for purposes of the registry at least, that wouldn't need
explanation each time it was used.
