Comments on SKOS Extension for Sub. Indexing

Hi Colleagues,

I've proposed some additional classes and properties as an extension of SKOS for subject indexing language. I welcome comments/suggestions from all group members and SKOS developers on this extended schema. 

The extension is broadly designed for semantic document annotation systems. I've tried to supplement some classes and properties for subject indexing  in the original skos schema. I've expressed a concept coordination model in the extension because subject indexing languages emphasize on two main processes: analysis of subject components (facetization) and coordination (ordering) of concepts. The extension expresses the model of Postulate based Permuted Subject Indexing (POPSI) language. 

The extended skos schema, my article and POPSI documentation can be downloaded from: http://drtc/~guha/popsi-skos/

I look forward for your comments.

Thanks

Nabonita
