Thanks.  It was my hope that by importing an existing document, that I
knew did validate, I could reverse engineer and observe how the same
data looks inside the forms and interfaces that make up TBC.  It does
seem to let me do some of that.  I imported my foaf.rdf file, and ran
the Inference Engine on it and then discovered a number of triples
that I had not known were in my data.  So, that's interesting to see
the SW at work.
Next question: So, this was recommended by someone as a tool for
editing rdf files in various serializations.  I notice in the help
file that it is described as a tool for editing and creating
ontologies, which is a little different.  Do people use TBC for
editing RDF or OWL files that serve as "data" or instance data as
opposed to modeling things which an ontology does?  I hope that makes
sense.  It is great to have a tool that does both if that is
possible.  When I want to create a new ontology, I can do that here.
When I have a few ontologies and want to save data, as triples using
those ontologies, I assume I can use TBC for this as well.
Thanks,
Bruce
