RE: [Proposal][SKOS-Core] revised proposal for subject indicators

Alistair

This proposal seems OK to me. I will forward it for comment to the appropriate TM WGs,
ISO/IEC JTC1/SC34/WG3 and OASIS PubSubj TC.

The following references might help :

3.2.2 : <subjectIndicatorRef> Element

5.4.2 : Identifying subjects
