I know I was just suggesting you model People as foaf:Person instead of skos:Concept ... but you might want to consider using skos:altLabel to model alternate names for people.
skos labeling properties were designed for labeling resources that aren't necessarily of type skos:Concept [1]. The domain for skos:altLabel is not defined. You can see this use of skos labeling properties documented in Leigh Dodd's and Ian Davis' Linked Data Design Patterns [2]. It might be worth prodding the foaf-dev [3] discussion list to see what other people have used in the past for alternate names. I guess I can do that and report back here if you like? //Ed [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/skos-reference/#L1541 [2] http://patterns.dataincubator.org/book/preferred-label.html [3] http://lists.foaf-project.org/mailman/listinfo/foaf-dev _______________________________________________ Ol-tech mailing list Ol-tech@archive.org http://mail.archive.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ol-tech To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send email to ol-tech-unsubscr...@archive.org
