[SKOS] progress on SKOS Reference

Hi all,

This is a quick progress update on producing a revised draft of the SKOS
Reference incorporating decisions made at the Washington meeting.

The current state of the draft is visible at
<http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/SKOS/reference/master.html>.

Highlights:

* Al has rewritten the section on mapping properties
* Al has written a first draft appendix defining the eXtension for Labels
(XL)
* Sean has produced formal schemas for both the SKOS vocabulary and the XL
vocabulary
* Sean has set up namespace dereferencing for SKOS and XL as per recipe 3
* Sean has emailed Primer editors with suggestions on extending SKOS and on
using owl:imports (allows appendixes to be removed from Reference)

The complete list of actions (including those still TODO) is at
<http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/wiki/SKOS/Reference/Planning>.

Sean and I believe that we can produce a new Editors' Draft by the telecon
next week (Tue 3rd June).

Regards,

Alistair.
