Re: Common RDF Vocabulary Labels Vocabulary

Quick work! I've noticed there's no class labels, yet. Would be handy 
eg, foaf:Agent etc.

Definitions, eg.
eg.
foaf:phone skos:prefLabel "phone number"@en"
foaf:phone rdfs:comment "A phone number, specified using fully qualified 
tel: URI scheme (refs: http://www.w3.org/Addressing/schemes.html#tel)."

Translating those would make it much easier for people to use these 
schemas. Making a big batch of useful labels to be translated in one go 
seems like a really good idea, although I'm sure you can feel the 
feaping creatures looming.

The idea is to provide a way for user interfaces to look up labels for RDF classes and properties where they were not provided by their vocabulary's author.
