In the rdf:plainLiteral specification at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/CR-rdf-plain-literal-20090611/,
in section 2, the first example says:

   ClassAssertion( a:i  MinCardinality( n a:property DatatypeRestriction( xs:string xs:length 1 ) ) )

Those (top-level) arguments are backwards, right?


(The OWL 2 Class Assertions specification section at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/CR-owl2-syntax-20090611/#Class_Assertions
specifies that the class-expression argument comes before the
individual argument:

   9.6.3 Class Assertions

    A class assertion ClassAssertion( CE a ) states that the individual a
    is an instance of the class expression CE.

    ClassAssertion :=
      'ClassAssertion' '(' axiomAnnotations ClassExpression Individual ')'

)
