As far as the exact predicate, I avoid venturing into what is best. I would have done the same harvest if you had put skos:exactMatch or even skos:closeMatch. sameAs.org is a discovery mechanism - it helps people/agents find things (I hope), and then they can choose whether they believe it!
Hmmm. Now I notice you *do* have some skos:exactMatch and even three skis:closeMatch. So they have gone in as well :-D (I missed them earlier as they were not in your nice voiD file, which is the place I looked, of course :-) ) By the way, you have the 2 letter skos:exactMatch with the 3 letter (e.g. AW = ABW). But the 3 letter (e.g. http://worldbank.270a.info/classification/country/ABW) resolution has very little information. Is this intentional?
