Just created a page that explains some of the benefits of the BestMap ontology approach to vocabulary mapping. Its most important feature is the ability to specify many-to-many mappings between concepts in two or more SKOS vocabularies, in a way that does not interfere with the semantics of standard SKOS relations.

BestMap is defined in OWL 2 and was developed as part of my work on the BestPortal, a portal that is intended to help citizens to determine whether their case has a chance in court (developed within the BEST project).
