Hi all,

Do we think it would be a good idea to restrict the range of skos:prefLabel
and skos:altLabel to xsd:string?  (Currently they're defined with range
rdf:Literal).

Even if we don't change the range of skos:prefLabel and skos:altLabel, is it
still OK for people to declare a datatype for those values, e.g. 

<skos:altLabel rdf:datatype="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string"
xml:lang="">foo</skos:altLabel>

?

Thanks,

Al.
