Hi Margherita, I'm reacting to the second part of your mail in a different thread. > > Recently I also discovered that in SKOS I can represent 3 different BTs: the > real BT (is-a), the instance-of and the part-of.

Be careful, I think this was just an editor's draft, therefore far from belonging to the (future) standard SKOS specification. It might be therefore be risky to use. So if you create e.g. skos:broaderInstantive statements in your vocabulary, you should perhaps make sure that there is also a skos:broader statement in case the first is not in any final standard specification. Any people from the SWD having some advice on this? I think we might go into trouble if we have unofficial SKOS extensions hanging around, with people starting to use it. This actually is quite close to Kjetil having perhaps used skos:it in his tagging environment application [2].
