* ยง7: The notion of a "datatype map" has been effectively
replaced by a new notion of "recognized IRIs". No further
explanation is being given for this change. I have to note
that the notion of datatype maps has been used and is
deeply integrated in several of the other core Semantic Web
specifications: SPARQL 1.1 (in the SPARQL Entailment
Regimes spec), OWL 2 (specifically in the RDF-Based Semantics),
and RIF (in the RDF-and-OWL Compatibility spec), and it is
probably generally in quite wide use, for example in many
scientific papers and books. I believe the notion of a
datatype map as very basic and relevant for the stack of
semantics specifications that are based on the RDF Semantics
spec. In addition, I have never encountered any bigger problem
with this notion, even though I have been highly involved with
it during the years, in particular in my work as the editor
of the OWL 2 RDF-Based Semantics. So under these circumstances,
I consider this change harmful for the foundation of the Semantic
Web, and with the lack of any rational the change even appears
to me to be an arbitrary choice. In my opinion, it goes too far
for a "1.1-style revision" of the RDF specification. In summary,
I cannot accept this change and ask the WG to bring back
the old notion of a datatype map.
