We created a system for multiple independently developed ontologies to be mixed-and-matched according to need and whim. The idea that an ontological approaches forces a single rigid view, ... is inaccurate w.r.t. the Web. Also, there are "scruffy" ontologies like SKOS that allow simple hierarchical concept schemes to be reflected into RDF.
