Hi, I thought I would announce that I have a new TaxonConcept data set that
includes millions of entries from an EoL NLP project. This was many about
annotating the text corpus but the data set includes a lot of photos and
additional data.

Yes, from the wording, I do agree with you.
However, as the entailment rule says, your conclusion is correct, but the other
way round might not. That you know, that there is something for that particular
instance, does not imply the necessity for each instance of that rdf:type.

I don't dislike Linked Stuff personally. I often say that URIs are

JSON, XML or
You said TOOLs. That’s correct. I’d like a way to natively work with RDF graphs
on Web browsers as I can do it with rdflib in Python or with Virtuoso and

We have successfully used two different tools in this realm:

to produce and consume RDF serialization. http://www.json-ld.org/
