I think it is early to define what RIM artifacts we would use -> I can see
that we might use not only Slots, but other things like
ClassificationSchemes, ObjectTypes, Associations, ... that's why I think
that discovering and applying "Mapping Patterns" is important.

Just to clarify: I wanted to make it clear that I am not sure that "Slots

discover "Mapping Patterns", sequentially / adhoc / ... is not that
important assuming we discover enough of them (and the right ones) to do the
job.
