CERIF 1.6.1 has:

A person (plural: persons or people; from Latin: persona, meaning "mask") is a being, such as a human, that has certain capacities or attributes constituting personhood, the precise definition of which is the subject of much controversy.

This is a so simple concept that it is very hard to formalize...
we should found a way to explain that a cfPers entity can be used only for "real" person to avoid forced use to introduce concepts like the name card

The definition from wikipedia is not very useful for our case.
I propose the following one:

A human being regarded as an individual.

We can also mix it with the following:

a human being as distinguished from an animal or a thing.

Outcome of our discussion at the TG virtual meeting today:

A human being as an individual.

The kind of involvement of a Person in the research ecosystem is specified in the links with the organisations, the services, etc. This typically includes:
(1) researchers (Persons performing research in an Organisation Unit);
(2) authors and contributors (Persons signing a publication, creators of data sets, etc.);
(3) investigators and project participants (Persons involved in a project as principal investigators, co-investigators, project managers, etc.);
(4) support staffs (administrative, responsible for Equipment, data curators, technicians, librarians, etc.).
One Person typically has many of these relationships.
