The OWL guide is probably as good a place as any. The rough idea is that
it is RDF, but in particular it specifies some things like equivalentClass
and Restriction so that you can do some simple logic in RDF, using a
reasoner like Pellet.
Or you could start from the example that Shadi wrote which I think got the
syntax right to demonstrate how you would solve our particular problem in
OWL: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-er-ig/2004Sep/0001.html
