Dear, The mapping constructs are not practical for expressing the mapping between concepts in the following use case. (maybe this use case is not considered as part of the skos objective, then please ignore the remark) - ConceptSchema csA, csB, ... are used to classify content Typically csA, csB, ... are large and complex content schemes, used by experts and/or expert tools - Taxonomies tM, tN, ... are used in a an custom [i.e. target audience specific] application Typically tM, tN, are made at hoc and are not used for direct content classification (This exclusion need not be absolute) - A seach expressed in terms/concepts of tM, tN, ... must be resolved by a one-way mapping (tN & tM & ...) -> boolean-expression-of(csA * csB * ... ) Multiple of these mappings allow content to be uniquely indexed (indexed over csA, cs B, ...) While supporting reuse of that indexed content in different search strategies for different audiences (user query specifies concepts from tM, tN, ...) The current mapping does not address such mappings (with a boolean expression) Kind Regards, Johan De Smedt ================= johan.de-smedt@tenforce.com mobile: +32 477 475 934 =================
