So in the example that Ross gave, <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://id.loc.gov/authorities/sh2008115565#concept"> identifies the same thing as: <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://id.loc.gov/authorities/sh2008115565"> ? But <skos:inScheme rdf:resource="http://id.loc.gov/authorities#conceptScheme"/> <skos:inScheme rdf:resource="http://id.loc.gov/authorities#geographicNames"/> do not either identify the same thing as: <skos:inScheme rdf:resource="http://id.loc.gov/authorities"/> ? If so, then, yes, that is very confusing. -- Karen Coyle kcoyle@kcoyle.net http://kcoyle.net ph: 1-510-540-7596 m: 1-510-435-8234 skype: kcoylenetReceived on Wed Nov 11 2009 - 14:37:44 EST
