I have recently finished work on a dataset that is a complete classification of the real numbers: for each subset of real numbers there is a distinct SKOS concept representing it. But I decided to defer publication of the dataset, unless there is a promising way to get real and useful Linked Data out of it. Now, with your datasets of rationals and irrationals, I could link each of my SKOS concepts to all the numbers it actually represents. For my data, this will lead from an originally only intentional representation to a much more explicit one! And for your data, this will mean that all these numbers will no longer stand on their own, but plenty of interrelationships between them will become immediately obvious just by means of my SKOS-based classification!! And what an amount of new links this will bring to everyone of us!!! So, I am happily waiting for your publication, ready to follow your lead right after. Cheers, Michael -- Dipl.-Inform.
