Hello, I am Adrian and working with Pascal at the hbz on Linked Open Data stuff, especially lobid.org. I subscribed to this list some days ago.

And umbel:isLike suggests a closer match than there might be. > We could > 1. weaken existing owl:sameAs links > 2. add a domain specific property. I think both makes sense. Weaken owl:sameAs to rdfs:seeAlso and allow adding domain-specific properties. > By the way, a foaf:Document is a frbr:Work or a frbr:Manifestation or > both... ...or might be a frbr:Item or even a frbr:Expression. It shouldn't be two or more of these, though, as according to the general FRBR model they are disjoint. E.g. the FRBR core ontology (one of the different FRBR ontologies) reads: <http://purl.org/vocab/frbr/core#Work> owl:disjointWith <http://purl.org/vocab/frbr/core#Expression>, <http://purl.org/vocab/frbr/core#Item>, <http://purl.org/vocab/frbr/core#Manifestation> . But we better not start a FRBR discussion here. Usually, they absorb much time that is better spent elsewhere and don't lead to anything productive. Having said this, it might be we made a bad choice using these FRBRish properties in lobid.org. But we think, at least the distinction between work, manifestation and item makes sense. Anyway, you should only use of the domain-specific property http://rdvocab.info/RDARelationshipsWEMI/manifestationOfWork to link from DBpedia to library catalogs etc. if you think it makes sense to type literary works on DBpedia as FRBR:Work. I think one can reasonably argue it does make sense. - Adrian > Am 06.05.2013 17:43, schrieb Pascal Christoph: >> Hi Sebastian, >> >> Am 06.05.2013 12:54 schrieb Sebastian Hellmann : >> >>> I merged your links into the repo.
