Re: [foaf-dev] EON - event of note

Hi all:

I am pretty much done with a comprehensive ticket ontology based on  
GoodRelations, so it may make sense to use that for all the commercial  
aspects of tickets and booking. It will work with most notions of  
"event" from existing ontologies.
Will keep you posted.

Best wishes

Martin
