RE: URI namespace for iso-thes?

Hi Osma,

While working on this, I used http://www.niso.org/schemas/iso25964/skos-thes# as namespace.
The work started within the ISO thesaurus WG and I had significant support form Antoine.
Publication is finished.
Attached RDF/OWL version of the thesaurus extension we made for SKOS.

I am interested to finish this work.

Kind Regards,
