It states: ctag:Tag rdfs:subClassOf tag:Tag . ctag:tagged rdfs:subClassOf tag:taggedWithTag . Whereas if ctag:Tag represents the tagging event, it should state: ctag:Tag rdfs:subClassOf tag:Tagging . ctag:tagged rdfs:subClassOf tag:tag . That also has implications for ctag's mappings to MOAT, SCOT, SKOS and SIOC though. And it invalidates the ctag:means mapping to MOAT. In essence it seems ctag:Tag is a sort of hybrid between tag:Tagging and tag:Tag. There's nothing wrong with that per se, but it does mean that your mappings to Richard Newman's tag ontology are probably never going to work especially well. And this includes MOAT and SCOT which are built on Richard's ontology. (And SIOC and SKOS use ideas which are fairly compatible with Richard's ontology too - indeed, tag:Tag is a subclass of skos:Concept.) -- Toby Inkster <tai@g5n.co.uk>
