Details

In your docs, this should be changed because the W3C docs changed rdf:instanceOf to be rdf:type http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-rdf-syntax/ (bottom) 4-September-1998: instanceOf -> type --- Also, I would note that containers are essentialy a subtype of resources, and replace "A" with something descriptive yet generic. Maybe ( instance of ) ( a Container ) because it's a rdfs:Container? I dunno, I understand RDF better after reading the schema, so maybe it would be good to hint at what is there. In my opinion, the W3C RDF docs don't do it right either, as they just have a blank circle.
Oh, and you may want to consider representing B, C , D with ... because it makes more sense as used in the templates as well. Maybe: ...(A)
Sure. I'll have to find the tool that I used to draw those picture, I guess.
