Agreed. However, we aren't using SKOS, so I'm thinking we'll use something like: <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://openlibrary.org/authors/OL22022A";> <rdf:value>Barbara Cartland</rdf:value> </rdf:Description> Does that work for folks? Can you embed those rdf:Description properties at various levels with impunity? Also, is there any feeling, strong or otherwise, about substituting dc terms where appropriate in the place of ol terms, or is everyone fine with doing their own translates from ol properties to whatever they use locally? kc -- Karen Coyle kco...@kcoyle.net http://kcoyle.net ph: 1-510-540-7596 m: 1-510-435-8234 skype: kcoylenet _______________________________________________ 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
