Re: RDF Validation

I can't comment on your original example (since we don't have it), but 
in the snippet below you have

 >     <owl:Class rdf:ID="Activity">
 >         <rdfs:subClassOf>
 >             <owl:Class rdf:resource="#PossibleIndividual"/>
 >         </rdfs:subClassOf>
 >     ...

for which the validator throws an E201.  Replacing it with

 >     <owl:Class rdf:ID="Activity">
 >         <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#PossibleIndividual"/>
 >     ...

fixes the problem.
