Folks, How can we provide information about the URI of the RDF Schema that we are working with?. the intent is to identify the RDF Schema we obtained somehow( got it on a floppy disk, sent to me a network packet etc...etc...). The problem is we can not create a new resource, as the schema is already existing. We have to use rdf:about and provide the URI of the schema and then use rdfs:isDefinedBy to specify the URI. But, this doesn't tell us if the URI pointed to by the resource is same as the RDF Schema we are processing. Alternatively we can enforce that every RDF Schema document we process has a special resource named 'XYZ' whose isDefinedBy property value would point to the URI of the Schema document. But, this solution is a interoperability nightmare. There has to be a more elegant, simple way to do this( something like targetNamespace ?). What is the suggested way to identify a RDF Schema itself in the document?. Thoughts?. Sateesh
