"To solve ISSUE-79 (11.4. Notations) I propose to encode notations with
the RFC 4646 private use language subtag 'x-notation' as suggested in
http://arxiv.org/abs/0801.3908"

FYI to the SKOS editors in making a decision on this issue.
In making the ICONCLASS SKOS version having a Notation is an important part,
and I followed the suggestion as mentioned.

This means ICONCLASS SKOS entries currently look like this:

Don't bother trying to resolve those HTTP URIs, they give 404s at the moment.
I haven't made a final decision on the namespace yet.
