On to the comments for your description:

I proposed "next" because it was already used in the framework for circuit monitoring. I'm hesitating to introduce an other name which means the same (1. as I wrote I try to limit new names; 2. use of new name would be incompatible or inconsistent with that solution for circuit monitoring). On the other hand, "connectedTo" is already used by NSI so I understand that some continuation is welcome. If you think that it's really important to keep "connectedTo" then I'm fine.
We're already saying that an nml-nsi:STP is equivalent to an nml:Port with some added behavior. I don't really see any reason why connectedTo would not work in this case.
- We don't have an nml:contact object at the moment, but it seems that we may indeed need one. However, defining the contact methods should perhaps be done using some other appropriate (standard) schema.
I'll try to find something. Any suggestions are welcome.
There's a FOAF namespace in RDF which describes similar things about a person. However, it's not really a standard I think. There's also the vCard standard, for which there is (I think) both an RDF and XML notation. Jeroen.
