Re: Modeling change in and between schemes using SKOS - the problem of persistent URIs

Hello all:

I hope to respond in depth to all emails relating to this issue, but  
I want to quickly ask a question:

What is the difference between what we've called Concept and  
InstanceConcept and what Mark suggested as a global URI and a local  
URI?  I want to be sure I have followed the substance of the  
conversation.

Thank you,
joe
