Re: ANN: The Vehicle Sales Ontology - Cars, Bikes, Boats on the Web of Data - http://purl.org/vso/ns

Hi Renato,
thanks, understood ;-)
However, for the moment, I tried to keep the identifiers and the  
labels in sync in all of my ontologies.
Also note that people coding RDFa markup will have to use the  
identifiers, not the labels, so the ontology labels are of very  
limited use.
