OWL Errata

From Semantic Web Standards

Any change a W3C Recommendation must be approved by a chartered W3C Working Group and the W3C Advisory Committee. Until that happens, this "errata" page lists problems people have reported with the OWL 2 documents, along with proposed solutions. To report a problem, send email to public-owl-comments@w3.org [archive]. We ask that OWL experts (especially the ones who produced the specifications) subscribe to that list and help review the proposed changes.

See the list archive for any unprocessed bug reports and in-progress discussion.
