Dear SKOSsers, ....and I would like to add these: * When using Jena (for example), which reasoner can be used to make inference on topics? * How do I setup this such that a query like: SELECT * WHERE { ?b a :Book; skos:subject c:Sports } also fetches Books about Golf, Skiing, Wakeboarding, etc. Subsumption reasoning over classes is simple but effective for such taxonomies like SKOS can be used for. And it should also work for transitivity of properties that way. Because I think one of the strange feelings about SKOS is the question, will I be worse off when using SKOS instead of simple RDF Schema class hierarchies? At least we are currently thinking about this because we would like to use SKOS in a project.
