RESOLVED: no telecon on Dec 5th
Discussions (35 min)
Publication Schedule and First Working Drafts
Jeremy Carroll: editors might want to relate part of the documents with issues in the issue list
Ian Horrocks: we need to see whether it is practical
Alan Ruttenberg: should issues be written in the beginning part of the sections?
Boris Motik: some issues are more meta issues
Alan Ruttenberg: we meant the specific ones
Boris Motik: I meant more issues are meta ones
Boris Motik: and who should do this?
Alan Ruttenberg: we could assign them to some people, including me
Ian Horrocks: which document?
Alan Ruttenberg: does not matter
Sandro Hawke: you still need to be familiar with the documents enough to do the job properly
Ian Horrocks: do we need to have such fine-grain issule list mechanism
Deborah McGuinness: it is also hard to follow
Sandro Hawke: do we want a hierarchical issue list?
Sandro Hawke: we should take a simplified approach
Ian Horrocks: we just started but we have 81 issues already
Alan Ruttenberg: a quick poll to see if the solution is acceptable by everyone
Alan Ruttenberg: three documents: syntax, semantics and mapping to RDF
PROPOSED: Annotate the Syntax, Semantics, and Mapping-to-RDF documents with links to all issues, as they might affect the text....
PROPOSED: Annotate the Syntax, Semantics, and Mapping-to-RDF documents with links to all issues, as they might affect the text, and then (give or take editorial changes) we will publish.
Sandro Hawke: I don't think we should have a resolution here
... but it seems that it is good enough to proceed?
Sandro Hawke: I think people need to review how it is done
Alan Ruttenberg: no resolution but general agreement to the direction
Ian Horrocks: chairs may delegate the tasks
Mapping to/from RDF
Boris Motik: owl dl is not 100% sub-language of owl full
Bijan Parsia: it seems that part of the issue what counts as compatibility
Bijan Parsia: your idea is a stronger version of compatibility
Ian Horrocks: we had similar discussion in WebOnt
Alan Ruttenberg: I want more compatibility than what is between RDF and OWL
Deborah McGuinness: it is a good idea to clarify compatibility
Boris Motik: one design principle of OWL 1.1 is that ...
Boris Motik: annotations have no semantics
Boris Motik: comments are simply comments
Ian Horrocks: in the charter we say to refine and extend OWL
Ian Horrocks: an OWL document should be one that could be translated from the one written in abstract syntax
... according to the spec
Jeremy Carroll: the semantics document is hard to get interpretation
Ian Horrocks: this is completely different order
... the semantics document is technical
... and understood by many people
Issues (35 min)
PROPOSAL: Base abbreviated URIs in Functional-style Syntax on CURIES not QNAMES (see Issue 14)
PROPOSED: Base abbreviated URIs in Functional-style Syntax on CURIES not QNAMES (see Issue 14)
Ivan Herman: it seems that we could do that without too much problems
RESOLVED: Base abbreviated URIs in Functional-style Syntax on CURIES not QNAMES (see Issue 14)
PROPOSED: Structural specification, XML Schema, and RDF mapping be extended to allow for multiple facet--value pairs in data ranges (see Issue 28)
RESOLVED: PROPOSAL: Structural specification, XML Schema, and RDF mapping be extended to allow for multiple facet--value pairs in data ranges (see Issue 28)
PROPOSED: Issue 64 be resolved as per this email
object property chains in triples: confusion of list with property
RESOLVED: Issue 64 be resolved as per [this http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-owl-wg/2007Nov/0391.html] email
Peter Patel-Schneider: I am not conviced that it would solve the round-tripping problem
Boris Motik: the spec should be more implementable
Bijan Parsia: need to make things easier
Alan Ruttenberg: if so, then an OWL DL ontology could become something not a proper OWL DlL ontology after some parsing
is this n-ary thing done by Protete using the well known design pattern for n-ary relations?
Alan Ruttenberg: annotation properties would be changed too
Ian: I think this is a tool issue rather than a language issue
... tools supporting OWL 1.1 will produce OWL1.1 files by default
rool call on Issue 2?
Issue 2 revisited: RDF syntax for other "n-ary constructs"? (See [1] and thread.)
Ian, I would like to see some alignment between the two syntax
RIF meeting
Bijan Parsia: there is a draft on compatibility between RIF and OWL
... people suggested RIF should talk to us on it
... proposed a joint TF
... between the two WGs
Alan Ruttenberg: do we need nominate someone?
Sandro Hawke: we didn't remember the exact number
