Hello -

I am unable to find any means for modeling sub-groups as parts of groups
out in Semantic Web language land. In other words all sorts of
organizations. I know of the W3C draft recommendation on Part-Whole, but
all their exemplars deal with physical entities: machines, documents,
anatomy.
http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/BestPractices/OEP/SimplePartWhole/

I want to model something as simple as this without writing my own formal
definition:
Mary member A-Team
A-Team partOf ABC Corp.
And infer Mary member ABC Corp of course. Seems like a common scenario.

Thoughts?
