RE: Multiple rdf:about in single element?

Using OWL or DAML+OIL, sort of.

Try:

<owl:Class rdf:ID="xx">
  <owl:subClassOf>
    <owl:Restriction>
      <owl:onProperty rdf:resource="&eg1;item"/>
      <owl:hasValue rdf:resource="#E1"/>
    </owl:Restriction>
  </owl:subClassOf>
</owl:Class>
<eg2:xx rdf:about="#A1"/>
<eg2:xx rdf:about="#A2"/>

Don't know if any tools support this yet though.
And it isn't shorter for only two items.
