I've just been reading the use cases for this issue. It seems that a resolution on this issue should follow the same approach as the for Issue 26 (relationship between labels). The key difference between issue 26 and issue 27 can be summarized as follows: - issue 26 concerns some property/characteristic of the relation between two lexical labels of the same concept, e.g. "RDF" is an abbreviation of "Resource Description Framework" - issue 27 concerns some statement about a single lexical label, e,g its creation date If we opt for "terms as classes" in Issue 26, Issue 27 is also resolved. If we opt for the n-ary relation approach (see my proposed resolution [1]), then it makes sense to include a similar solution for issue 27, e.g. through a LabelProperty (instead of LabelRelation) relation. There are some choices/issues wrt the representation details, to which I will come back in a follow-up message. BTW some of the use cases mentioned in the description of issue 27 actually belong to issue 26, e.g. use cases 8 and 10.
