Hi Thanks for your RDF Schema review comments, http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-comments/2003JanMar/0243.html You comment on the diagram http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-rdf-schema-20021112/intro-example.jpg and suggest that the direction of the arrow indicates that "all agents are people" rather than "all people are agents". I've double-checked, and the diagram is OK, and consistent with the meaning of rdfs:subClassOf and the conventions for representing RDF graphs visually. A possible cause of concern is that rdfs:subClassOf may be named a little confusingly; you can try reading it as 'superClass' instead, ie. it points from a more specific class (eg. people) to a more general class (eg. agents, things etc). I should also point out that this figure is not part of the latest version of the RDF Schema specification; it will probably get used elsewhere though, so thank you for your comments. http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-schema/ -> http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-rdf-schema-20030123/ ...is the most recent version of the spec. Thanks again for your comments, Dan
