Hi all,


I have problems with a piece of an ontology where the validator
complains about the object of the rdf:first property not being a
resource. However it seems this is possible:


From the enumerated data type example in the official documentation I
get:



<fontfamily><param>Courier</param><x-tad-bigger><<owl:DatatypeProperty

               <<rdf:first rdf:datatype="&xsd;integer">15<</rdf:first>

Finally, when I run the validator (vowlidator) I get the following
errors (warnings) :

It seems to me mostly a validator's problem.

Any hints ?
