ISSUE-184: Last Call Comment: Notation and prefLabel overlap
http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/track/issues/184
Raised by: Sean Bechhofer

4. skos:notation and skos:prefLabel are overlapping
---------------------------------------------------
There are two issues here: 1, Most notation in classification schemes is
preferred (i.e., standard) notation. Should both skos:notation and
skos:prefLabel be used for all these cases?
2, On some occasions an alternative (i.e., optional) notation is given
for a concept. For example, inScheme CCT:
[Q89] environmental biology
Preferred class: X17
Regardless whether it is preferred or alternative, the notation always
represents a unique concept and therefore has semantic relationships.
Hence, an alternative notation is not a non-preferred thesaurus label,
which has only lexical relationships.
