Toby (or anyone else), are you in contact with Evan? I see that the status.net rdf schema is not published yet. Would they perhaps be interested/willing to use the potential result of this as their ont? IOW, they'll get a proper RDF Schema for their namespace, and we'd have at least one thing less to agree on. Anyone aware of other statusnet terms apart from postIcon?
