  10                 <p>
  11                         A topic with which this thing is associated.

  14                         The intention of this property is not to describe the <em>contents</em> of a thing, but rather to scope out, by associating it with relevant topics, who might be <em>interested</em> in it (for example, those who have the assoicated topic as a <ref target="foaf:topic_interest">topic of interest</ref>).
  15                         The range of this property is not formally defined, but <ref target="sioctypes:Category">Categories</ref> and <ref target="sioctypes:Tag">Tags</ref> are recommended.
  16                 </p>
  17                 <p>
  18                         <ptr target="(SIOC)"/> defines this property as a subproperty of <ptr target="dcterms:subject"/>, but this probably isn¦t quite right:
  19                         While this property does associate a thing with a subject, the association is broader than “aboutness” would imply.
  20                         This ontology accordingly keeps the properties separate.
  21                 </p>
