ISSUE-17

role punning

RESOLVED: Object and datatype role punning

State:
CLOSED
Product:
Raised by:
Jeremy Carroll
Opened on:
2007-10-24
Description:
Reported by jlc415, Jun 11, 2007

The current model-theoretic semantics document allows punning between all signature elements, 
including punning between object and datatype role names.

It is extremely difficult to imagine a case in which punning between different types of roles would 
be anything other than user error. Furthermore, this semantic model is incompatible with that of 
OWL-DL. Under OWL-DL a role name was required to be given a single interpretation as object or 
datatype across all use in the ontology; under OWL 1.1 this is no longer the case.

2008-04-14 07:53:09: Resolved at F2F2 [1]: Property punning forbidden as per Boris Motik's proposal [2], the reason being that technically we don't know how to do it. NOTE that this includes punning of AnnotationProperties (i.e., no punning of *any* types of property).
