Re: schema.org 1.0b update

Hi Dan

All good news!

The new version has been stored in LOV on OKFN servers at [1]
The stored version in n3 [2] can be downloaded from the vocabulary
timeline, as well as the two previous ones 1.0a and 0.99.
It's extracted from the RDFa version, using the W3C RDFa Distiller.

Just a small remark : I'm puzzled by the type of sources such as
GoodRelationsProperties

<http://www.w3.org/wiki/WebSchemas/SchemaDotOrgSources#source_GoodRelationsProperties>
a schema:Organization

Even GoodRelations itself is not an Organization, it's a vocabulary :)

That said I've no clear alternative proposal for the type of this "thing",
maybe <http://schema.org/ItemList> (the list of GoodRelations properties)?

Best

Bernard
