Okay, all you need to do it make you derivative ontology and the share 
its URI. That ultimately aids evaluation for all parties that are 
interested :-)

For instance, I know certificates (entity type: rdf:Resource) and keys 
(entity type: rdf:Resource) are related via a "has" relation. I know 
agents (entity type: foaf:Agent) and certificates are related via an 
"owns" relation. That said, it's unclear to me if that's what's being 
discussed/debated .
