Hi FOAFers,
short implementaion report: ;-)
A couple of weeks ago I posted a comment on some fundamental problems
I had trying to make an OWL editor work with the FOAF RDFS schema [1].
It really seems to be the case that you cannot use OWL (Lite/DL)
tools with RDFS class definitions. sad but true. Took me some time to
find a solution but now I'm back again to ask further stupid questions:
In order to make my editor generate FOAF-based html forms, I have to
manually import the FOAF classes and properties from the schema once.
I now came across foaf:title and foaf:nick which have no domain or
range specified (at least I couldn't find them). range is clear
(rdfs:Literal or xsd:string) but would the domain be a foaf:Agent or
just any resource (in my case owl:Thing)?
p.s.: the editor is part of my thesis but I'm thinking about
installing a (someday hopefully) stable version on a server
and/or making the code (php) available. people could then
create and store their foaf files online. would this make
sense? any comments, anyone interested in such a service/tool?
greetinx,
benjamin
