I think it wouldn't be a good idea for the subClassOf link. I'm not an
expert in RDF, but I think rdf:Description was intended as a very
specific, syntax-oriented construct and not a conceptual entity:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-syntax-grammar-20040210/#section-Namespace
http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-mt/, section 3.1 describing the RDF vocabulary
Otherwise I think that it is wiser to create your own property. Be
careful however with the direction of your conceptmeans property, as
specified by domain/range: does it go 'from' a description 'to' a
concept? I dont mind, it's your vocabulary ;-) but it's just that the
skos:it you mentioned goes from a concept to something else, I think.
Cheers,
Antoine
