RE: [Action][SKOS-Core] Definitions and examples added, comments upda ted

Hi Benjamin, all,

I know the domain of 'skos:example' and 'skos:definition' is currently set
as skos:Concept ... however I have used these properties as part of the RDF
description of SKOS Core itself to describe RDF properties and RDFS classes,
as you noticed :)

Should we remove the 'skos:Concept' domain statement for all note
properties, so that they may be used with other things, e.g. RDF properties
and RDFS classes?

N.B. skos:prefLabel and skos:altLabel have no domain statement for exactly
this reason.

Al.
