Appendix A

Basic XML Serialization

The description of the 'Property' resource puts the class into the wrong namespace. The description should read:

  <rdf:Description about="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#Property">
    <rdfs:label xml:lang="en">Property</rdfs:label>
    <rdfs:label xml:lang="fr">Propriété</rdfs:label>
    <rdfs:comment>The concept of a property.</rdfs:comment>
    <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#Resource"/>
    <rdf:type resource="#Class"/>
  </rdf:Description>

Compact XML Serialization

In the definition of the 'label' property, the label property was mis-spelled. The definition should read:

  <rdf:Property ID="label"
     rdfs:label="label"
     rdfs:comment="Provides a human-readable version of a resource name">
   <rdfs:domain rdf:resource="#Resource"/>
   <rdfs:range rdf:resource="#Literal"/>
  </rdf:Property>

This error also appears in the RDF embedded within the document.

The description of the 'Property' resource puts the class into the wrong namespace. The description should read:

  <rdfs:Class rdf:about="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#Property"
      label="Property"
      comment="The concept of a property.">
    <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#Resource"/>
  </rdfs:Class>

This error also appears in the RDF embedded within the document.

The description of the 'Statement' resource omits a required namespace prefix on the about attribute and mis-spells the 'label' property. It should read:

  <rdfs:Class rdf:about="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#Statement"
    label="Statement"
    comment="This represents the set of reified statements.">
  <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#Resource"/>
</rdfs:Class>

The first of these errors also appears in the RDF embedded within the document.

The descriptions of the 'Bag', 'Seq', and 'Alt' classes omit a required namespace prefix on the about attribute. They should read:

  <rdfs:Class rdf:about="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#Bag"
      label="Bag">
    <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#Container"/>
  </rdfs:Class>

  <rdfs:Class rdf:about="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#Seq"
      label="Sequence">
    <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#Container"/>
  </rdfs:Class>

  <rdfs:Class rdf:about="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#Alt"
      label="Alt">
    <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#Container"/>
  </rdfs:Class>
