I still owe an example of a simple use of WordNet ... this wasn't quite the one I had in mind, but has the advantage of being more real: http://norman.walsh.name/knows/where#dk-copenhagen is described as having RDF type http://xmlns.com/wordnet/1.6/City clicking on the above URL gives an RDF/XML download .... and uses words from WordNet as RDF classes ... I think what Norm is trying to do is simply say that his copenhagen URI is a resource which belongs to a class with some (strong) relationship to the english word city in wordnet 1.6 sense 1 with description 'a large and densely populated urban area; may include several independent administrative districts; "Ancient Troy was a great city"' This use of WordNet is fairly naive (in the sense that non-experts can do it) and does not depend on any of the relationships between words.
