That's more than editorial work, and we could well add these axioms in the CR period. Yes, we would need to add a new statement to the class and property definitions in section A.3: "skosxl:prefLabel, skosxl:altLabel and skosxl:hiddenLabel are pairwise disjoint properties." I don't know if this is editorial, substantive, or something in between, because this is really an error of omission -- we just forgot to add something that clearly should be there. Ralph, Guus, can we make this change in the CR period, without a new last call?
