The FRBR ontology at http://vocab.org/frbr/core was not produced by
the same people that produced the FRBR model and marc mappings. So
not necessarily. The FRBR ontology really maps to the FRBR
specification, so if you agree with the basic definition of the four
WEMI classes then you should ideally use the existing work to markup
your data.
