SKOS: COMMENT: Re: [Mulgara-general] Rules and SKOS

This is very interesting.

This is also a very good example of just how the introduction of  
broaderTransitive and narrowerTransitive   may, on further reflection,  
turn out to be, upon further review, differently  weighted in the  
balancing of factors than, on ones initial impression, may have  
seemed, or rather, the converse.

Or, to quote Professor Jane Greenberg, SKOS is neither Simple, or a  
K.O.S.
