Another approach is to model these general relationships in a different way from the more specific ones. Model the relationship explicitly (as a node): C1 ex:relation _:rel1 . C2 ex:relation _:rel1 . _:rel1 ex:comment "blah blah" . where, say ex:relation rdfs:range ex:Relationship . then you can say anything you want about each specific relationship. More concrete examples might help. Hamish
