Hopefully I will be able to also provide some feedback later today.

Maybe this very new document is of interest:

vCard Ontology
For describing People and Organisations
W3C First Public Working Draft 2 May 2013
http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-vcard-rdf-20130502/

It is somewhat strange that FOAF is not mentioned in that document. It
think that this is mainly a result of the fact that different
communities were involved.

Cheers,
Andreas
