Issues in the serialization of the translation categories ontology

Dear all

I write to this mailing list since I was unable to find any contact
information for the *translation-categories *ontology, while I suspect that
its authors might belong to the OntoLex Community Group.

The problem is this. When I deference the the IRI
*http://purl.org/net/translation-categories#directEquivalent
<http://purl.org/net/translation-categories#directEquivalent> *(which has
been used in the OntoLex specs), I obtain a Turtle file, of which I provide
an excerpt:


*<trcat:directEquivalent> *

*   rdfs:label "direct equivalent"@en ;   rdfs:comment "Typically, the two
terms describe semantically equivalent entities that refer to entities that
exist in both cultures and languages. E.g., surrogate mother (EN) -> mère
porteuse (FR)"@en .*

As you can see, the subject is *<trcat:directEquivalent>*, which is not a
prefixed name, but rather it is -- literally -- the URI
*trcat:directEquivalent*, which isn't probably what the authors had in mind.

In addition to fix this issue, I suggest to add an ontology node with
suitable metadata (including the contacts or the authors of the ontology)
and, why not?, register the ontology to Linked Open Vocabularies.

Best regards,
Manuel Fiorelli
