[foaf-dev] Time to make the foaf classes relate to Dublin Core classes?

[KANZAKI Masahide]

Hi Dan,

The dcterms:AgentClass is designed as domains of dcterms:audience,
dcterms:mediator and dcterms:educationLevel. So it could be generic
students, women, charities, lecturers etc (a class of Agents), but
basically not a specific group (e.g. FOAF Project).

I guess foaf:Group is neither equivalentClass nor subClassOf dcterms:AgentClass.
