Seems like a user could declare slideshow to be a sub-class of sioc:item without that needing to be specified at the SIOC level? Let me put that another way, clearly someone /could/ do that, in their own ontology, but what is the general feeling about that? I suppose it could cause some issues, since others might not notice the additional statement and see unexpected results, and not doing it at a vocabulary level misses out on possible synergies ... --J > Cheers, > > > Bob > > [1] http://bibliontology.com/ > [2] > http://bibotools.googlecode.com/svn/bibo-ontology/trunk/doc/classes/Slideshow___195615124.html > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "SIOC-Dev" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/sioc-dev?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIOC-Dev" group.
