Interesting.
And of course (I would say :-) ) that this has same as at sameas.org:
http://sameas.org/?uri=http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4r0L_kLnS6EdaAAACgyZzFrg
To get to dbpedia etc. (or vice versa).
Perhaps more interestingly, putting “red” into the text search box at sameas.org, which queries Sindice.com to find candidate URIs, comes back with a range of URIs considered equivalent candidates:
http://sameas.org/?q=red
Best

Do you really need URIs? I.e. do you want to add further descriptions or
links to colors, such as "color1 is nicer than color2", or "color can be
produced from material" – or do you just want to point to colors ("thing has
color")? In the latter case, wouldn't literals with datatypes be sufficient?
For literals, there is at least a standard for RGB colors: #RRGGBB. Still,
here it's the standard _datatype_ that's missing.
Cheers,
Christoph
