Hi,
I think this is an issue of great importance.I've a question
now.rdf:Property is an instance of rdfs:Class.
From RDFS specification,we know that "The rdfs:domain of rdfs:subClassOf is
rdfs:Class. The rdfs:range of rdfs:subClassOf is rdfs:Class."
Then why we can not use rdfs:subClassOf in definition of a Property.
In order to express my idea more concretely,I've a sample here.I want to
model a fact that People Love People,and the Love is a complex property
with its own property.My OWL description is as follows.I'm looking forward
to your comments and feedbacks that if it's right.:-),or what's wrong?
