RE: is FRBR relevant?

Tom,

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that frad:soundLabel already exists. FRSAD
doesn't provide any clues for how to express "sign or sequence of signs"
in a systematic way. I was just trying to reflect the model I thought
you were proposing realistically and misunderstood a little along the
way. I'll use x-frsad: in the future. 

Relating FRSAD to OWL/SKOS by analogy isn't good enough. I'm looking for
plausible ways to relate FRSAD concepts to OWL and SKOS using
owl:equivalentClass so FRBR/FRAD/FRSAD/libraries will operate in the
mainstream.
