[Sigia-l] Taxonomy for Art related products

[Ruth Kaufman]

I've worked on an art-related service and have a sort of working 
taxonomy for it. We use the term 'work' as a catch-all for art items. 
Then we have 'type'. For each type, there is a particular configuration 
of details. So far our data model isn't that rigid -- it's a work in 
progress. But 'work' seems to work so far. We also have 'event' and 
various person-info terms.
