Re: [Tracker] Mixed mode call log support

["Compton, Matthew" <matthew compton windriver com>]

Hi Ivan,

Thanks for your response. Chris has asked me to provide you with more detail on what we need.

For the desired UI we need to be able to tell from the call history if a call was:
* A GSM Voice Call
* A CDMA Voice Call
* A 3G Video Call

Right now all of these would probably be stored in Tracker as nmo:Call objects. So we could add the "call 
mode" property as you suggested to nmo:Call to distinguish between the 3 different types. 

However, I see in the ontology there is also an nmo:VOIPCall which is a subclass of nmo:Call, do you think it 
would be better to make 3 additional subclasses similar to nmo:VOIPCall instead of adding a new property?

Thanks for your input,

Matt
