Hi all, I would like to propose that the following properties be removed from SKOS Core, and be moved to an 'extensions' vocabulary (perhaps under the namespace <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core/extensions#>?) ... skos:broaderGeneric skos:broaderInstantive skos:broaderPartitive skos:narrowerGeneric skos:narrowerInstantive skos:narrowerPartitive skos:relatedHasPart skos:relatedIsPartOf My reasons are: (1) These are the least stable parts of SKOS Core, and I don't expect them to stabilise in the short term (i.e. months). So they're getting in the way of publishing short term. (2) They impinge on the whole 'thesauri -> ontologies' question, which again I don't think we're going to have an answer for in the next couple of months. (3) They clutter up SKOS Core, and distract from its fundamental features. If anyone is using these terms in anger, and/or has any objections to this action, speak now! Yours, Al. -- Alistair Miles Research Associate CCLRC - Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Building R1 Room 1.60 Fermi Avenue Chilton Didcot Oxfordshire OX11 0QX United Kingdom Email: a.j.miles@rl.ac.uk Tel: +44 (0)1235 445440
