Re: [Dbpedia-ontology] [Dbpedia-discussion] Advancing the DBpedia ontology

Vladimir,

I am more than happy to work the ML problem with you.  For your example of the dichotomy with the domain and range of "mother" and queen Victoria being the "mother", this begs for contextual approach to that concept....
