Re: [Q] how to reference a rdf schema in an rdf instance file ?

Could you explain that again for me?  I'm a little confused. :-/

If you step up to OWL [1], then you can use owl:import to... well...
import another ontology [2].  I think that DAML may have similar
abilities (I definitely not sure); however, OWL will be replacing the
older specification in the near-term [3].  IMHO, of course, I would use
OWL.
