[Buildingdata] Assigner of a URI

[Christopher Gutteridge]

for data-ac-uk.ecs.soton.ac.uk I've invented two new predicates

oo:stateAssignedURI
- relates a resource to a URI assigned to it by the state (ie. 
government or official government body)

oo:selfAssignedURI
- relates a resource to a URI assigned to it by itself. In this case the 
resource is probably a  foaf:Agent?

and I think I also want to create

oo:ownerAssignedURI
- relate a resource to a URI assigned to it by its owner. For buildings 
this may indicate a person or group renting or otherwise occupying the 
space. (better suggestions for this term?)

oo:employerAssignedURI
- assigned to a member of staff by an organisation which employees them.


The reason for these links is that they help decide how to understand 
the data you get back from resolving each identifier.
eg.

<http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/cjg/foaf.rdf#me>
    owl:sameAs <http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/person/1248> ;
    oo:employerAssignedURI <http://id.ecs.soton.ac.uk/person/1248> ;
    oo:selfAssignedURI <<http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/cjg/foaf.rdf#me> .

I think this has real value, and plan to add it to indicate that the 
sameAs links in our bus-stops data are to the government assigned URIs.

Any ideas or comments?
