Comments:		Data creators can define terms for the specific roles relevant to their use case/application, and/or re-use roles defined in the Contribution Role Ontology (CRO). Note that if the same Agent played multiple roles in contibuting to some artifact, they may all be captured in a single Contribution object. However, if data creators want to provide metadata specific to each role (e.g. when or how each role was played), then a separate Contribution object should be created for each role.
