Making a big batch of useful labels to be translated in one go seems like a really good idea, although I'm sure you can feel the feaping creatures looming. Sure can. But hang on, is the web not about linking, rather than copying things around? Having a similar, but different, rdfs:comment in a different place to the http://xmlns.com/foaf/spec/ really doesn't seem the right thing to me. Please can someone suggest some answers to my questions about exactly what this is?
