Or not convinced by the notion that skos:notation might be used with a plain literal? The suggestion is that we temper the original wording: [[ This property is used to assign a notation to a concept as a typed literal [RDF-CONCEPTS <http://www.w3.org/TR/skos-reference/#ref-RDF- CONCEPTS>]. ]] which states that typed literals are used for skos:notation (but note that there are no semantic conditions, so this would just be convention anyway). > By the way cc Norman Gray, as this conflicts a bit with what I've > previously written to him in [2]. It would be very useful to have Norman's comments on this.
