comment specifically says &quot;To describe the kind of Organism using a URI<br>
object in RDF, use rdf:type ... instead.&quot;  The Darwin Core RDF Guide<br>
includes dwc:organismScope in the category of terms having analogues in<br>
the dwciri: namespace (i.e. having an IRI-reference object).  I believe<br>
that it should be removed from that list and placed in Table 3.8 [1]<br>
with an explanation that rdf:type should be used instead in accordance<br>
with the term comment.<br>
