ISSUE-174: Last Call Comment: Cycles and skos:closeMatch

http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/track/issues/174

Raised by: Sean Bechhofer
On product: SKOS

Raised by Jeremy Carroll in [1]:

14) 10.6.5A missing discussion of Cycles involving skos:closeMatch. (editorial
or perhaps larger substantive)
Possible text:
[[
Since
<A> skos:exactMatch <B>
entails
<A> skos:closeMatch <A> (via S45, S46 and S42).
implementations must be able to cope with cycles in skos:closeMatch.
]]

This perhaps calls into question the stance in other sections where reflexivity
of other properties is left open as an implementation variability.
