Hi all,

I am creating RDF to Topic Maps mappings for common RDF vocabularies
and I stumbled over tmcl:see-also [1].

Until today I kept the rdfs:seeAlso [2] as occurrence type but I
wonder if it would make sense to set the occurrence type to
tmcl:see-also. I am tempted to think that this is a bad idea but maybe
others have comments regarding this issue?

RDF:

  @prefix wp_en: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/>.
  @prefix wp_de: <http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/>.
  @prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> .


  wp_en:John_Lennon rdfs:seeAlso wp_de:JohnLennon .


Possible results:

(a) Keeping rdfs:seeAlso as occ-type:

    wp_en:JohnLennon
     rdfs:seeAlso: <http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/JohnLennon>.


(b) Translating rdfs:seeAlso to tmcl:see-also

    wp_en:JohnLennon
     tmcl:see-also: <http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/JohnLennon>.


Ideas? Opinions?
