Dear Richard,
That is an interesting comment. Anyway, the labels are in a European
language.
We have proposed in the past that the generic RDF property labels are
the E / P numbers,
and that language labels are display properties. That's why we have the
E/ P numbers,
which are as robust as anything in this world can be, but pople voted not to
have naked E-Pnumbers in RDFS. So, we cannot control ISO. We can
declare to be smarter than ISO and stick at will to our labels. Or, we
finally admit that
user tools should have the ability to display the language lables, and
not the generic ones,
and change the master RDF.
Comments?
Best,
Martin

The canonical, de-referenced URIs use the CRM alphanumeric code
without the English label to make them language independent,
following IFLA standard practice for linked data.
Interesting. I was thinking of suggesting that the main CRM Linked
Data resource adopts exactly this approach. Linked Data identifiers
are meant to be persistent, as far as possible, and we saw this week
that random decisions by ICOM editors have led to changes in element
and property labels. With the current strategy, these changes will
have to be propagated into the Linked Data URLs, making the CRM as bad
as dbpedia when it comes to stability of URLs over time. (In
Wikipedia, anyone can change the title of a page to help disambiguate
it. When they do, the corresponding dbpedia URL has to change.)
