Not quite. An ACC has CCProperty which contain Property Terms for its
(the ACC's) contained ASCCs/BCCs. This means that a CC has no property
term until it gets used (contained) by an ACC. Confusing..

Hmmm...I would be interested to know why you interpret the CCTS spec
this way. My interpretation has always been that Core Components are to
be stored as entities with their specified attributes, which include
PropertyTerm. In other words, a registry submitter should be allowed to
submit a Core Component as a RegistryObject in its own right, without
that Core Component being "contained" by an Aggregate Core Component.
This will allow registry submitters to submit all their Core Components
in advance of creating their Aggregate Core Components if they wish to.

Please point me to the requirement in the CCTS spec that states that
Core Component attributes must not be populated until the Core Component
is contained by an Aggregate Core Component. I may have missed it.

Good point - let's put this on our list of questions for the CCTS team.
