I think I was a bit hasty and wrote that model on the fly while still suffering from a head cold (a lot better now). In retrospect, it does look bogus :) Sorry for that. I'm not sure even aboutEach would have solved this particular modelling problem. RDF has subPropertyOf, subClassOf but does not have subResourceOf - you can't inherit resources, or the properties of them. But given my previous error, maybe somebody with a clearer head can help out. Dave
