I have used a couple of DC relations to describe parent and child documents, for example in this RDF file; http://mkdoc.com/features/dc.rdf I have this: <dcq:isPartOf> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://mkdoc.com/"> <dc:title xml:lang="en-gb">MKDoc</dc:title> <rdfs:Comment xml:lang="en-gb">MKDoc is the parent document of Features.</rdfs:Comment> </rdf:Description> </dcq:isPartOf> <dcq:hasPart> <rdf:Seq> <rdf:li> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://mkdoc.com/features/accessibility/"> <dc:title xml:lang="en-gb">Accessibility</dc:title> <rdfs:Comment xml:lang="en-gb">Accessibility is a child document of Features.</rdfs:Comment> </rdf:Description> </rdf:li> <rdf:li> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://mkdoc.com/features/breadcrumb/"> <dc:title xml:lang="en-gb">Breadcrumb-Trail Navigation</dc:title> <rdfs:Comment xml:lang="en-gb">Breadcrumb-Trail Navigation is a child document of Features.</rdfs:Comment> </rdf:Description> </rdf:li> </rdf:Seq> </dcq:hasPart> I don't think that this is a great way to do this but I couldn't think of anything better... Suggestions are welcome! Since you can use link rel's in (X)HTML for parent [1], child [2] and sibling [3] I think that it would be great if there was a way to represent rel's in RDF...
