Re: sdw bp samePlaceAs

Hi, just for clarification about my comment about so:matches during the call and the minutes:

I meant to make a connection to existing related work and the authors conceptual/philosophical considerations/justifications for the different kinds of similarity.

It was not my intention to introduce an explicit triple stating "sdw:samePlaceAs sub-property of so:matches", (as unfortunately the ontology down) but I rather wanted to raise the question of whether this would be conceptually the case and if so, so:match's definition could serve as an inspiration for that of swd:samePlaceAs.


Cheers,

Claus

If informally,  about which properties could be substituted).  But I cannot follow the argument from the minutes concerning why  sdw:samePlaceAs should not be defined as  a subproperty of so:matches.

Or something like that.  For commercial businesses, real estate agents, community groups (remember the fete?), social scientists? Most of these would be neither transitive nor  reflexive but  maybe some are symmetric.
