Make otherEdition subClassOf relatedTo instead of derivativeOf #61

Closed klngwll closed 3 years ago

klngwll commented 4 years ago

otherEdition [1] is a symmetric property with no explicit direction of the relationship, therefore it can make for some strange semantic effects having it as a subClass of derivativeOf [2] which has a distinct direction in it's relationship. Having it as a subClass directly of relatedTo [3] which is also symmetric would be better suited.
