Hi Ralph, Indeed the SKOS model does not enfore that statement. But as I said, *if an application does matching of en-UK and en-GB to en*, then that kind of thing could happen. Or more precisely, my question is: could this really happen, even for one application, and if yes, should be include a simple warning in our documentation?
