Third Round

Executive Summary

In this round the technical documents were published as Candidate Recommendations and the user facing documents as Last Call Working Drafts (see Deliverables). A total of 21 comments were received, most of them regarding minor editorial errors and/or omissions. One comment (from Holger Knublauch) asked for an OWL 2 vocabulary file, a draft of which has now been produced (see http://www.w3.org/2007/OWL/wiki/Owl2DotOwlDevel).

All comments have been responded to, and all commenters (who bothered to reply) have declared themselves to be satisfied with the WG's response (one, JH1, with some reservations, but our follow-up reply did not elicit any response).

Second Round

Executive Summary

In the first Last Call round the Working Group received 74 comments. Many of these comments, even those that requested changes,were complementary about the work of the Working Group, and included statements such as:

  • "In my opinion, OWL 2 is a great improvement over OWL 1 since it incorporates several expressive means which are relevant for applications." (Jan Hladik, SAP Research)
  • "we've chosen to use OWL 2 RL as the basis for our products" (Carlos Gonzalez-Cadenas, ExperienceOn)
  • "I'd like to express my interest in and support for the proposed extensions to be incorporated in OWL2" (Jeremy Rogers, NHS Connecting for Health)
  • "I'd like to express my interest for this great work extending OWL. I'm sure this will make easier the language usage." (Maurice Israel, Thales Communication)
  • "Great to have a document on the Manchester OWL syntax", "The documents on the different language profiles is extremely welcome", "I welcome the introduction of QCRs, Property Chains, asymmetric properties, disjoint properties, keys, annotation properties, extended data types, disjoint union (a great space saver)" (John Goodwin, Ordnance Survey Research)
  • "I'd like to express my support for the proposed extensions and profiles described in OWL 2 Web Ontology Language New Features and Rationale" (Chris Wroe, BT Health)
  • "the rationale for the new features seem well-founded and some of these features will be of potential benefit to BT in our work with customers, particularly (but not necessarily exclusively) in the health sector" (John Davies, BT Innovate)
  • "Our Health Services division is investigating the use of OWL 2 for knowledge-driven architectures to build the next generation of IT solutions for health-care. From our perspective, the change from OWL 1 to OWL 2 constitutes a welcome step in the right direction." (Sam Brandt, SIEMENS Medical Solutions)
  • "KR-WG encourages the further evolution of OWL 2 and believes that it will open new perspectives in making biomedical data and knowledge interoperable and computable." (Stefan Schulz & Ronald Cornet, AMIA Working Group of Formal Biomedical Knowledge Representation)
  • "I have been using the OWL 2 Manchester syntax in Protégé 4 beta almost exclusively and find very few gaps in general." (Cecil O. Lynch, Ontoreason)
  • "I greatly appreciate the many improvements offered by OWL 2 and see many benefits for the Health Care and Life Sciences Interest Group", "A few of my favorite new features are: Property chain inclusion ... Local reflexivity ... Qualified Cardinality ... The new reflexive, irreflexive, and asymmetric property axioms", "Thank you for your excellent work!" (M. Scott Marshall, W3C HCLS Interest Group)
  • "We support the inclusion of all of the new language features F1-F15 in section 2 of the New Features doc." (Frank van Harmelen, Semantic Web Group at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam)


Of the 74 comments, 10 were simply expressing approval and did not require any response, 2 were withdrawn (the commenter realising that the imagined problem actually wasn't one) and 2 required no action (the comments having related to already fixed problems). Of the remaining 60 comments, 53 were responded to by the Working Group to the acknowledged satisfaction of the commenters, 2 have been superseded by comments in the second Last Call round, and 5 were responded to by the Working Group, but the response was not acknowledged by the commenters (in spite of reminders).

Looking more closely at the 5 comments where the Working Group's responses were not acknowledged, 3 of these can be considered "satisfied" in the sense that the Working Group responded by making the changes/corrections requested by the commenters. The remaining 2 comments for which the Working Groups responses were not acknowledged were:

  • FH2 in which Frank van Harmelen and other members of the Semantic Web Group at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam complained about inappropriate use of the terms OWL (2) DL and Full. The Working Group acknowledge the problem, extensively revised several documents and added a new Overview document.
  • FH3 in which Frank van Harmelen and other members of the Semantic Web Group at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam objected to the introduction of the XML Serialisation on the grounds of extra burden on tool developers, breaking upwards compatibility (with OWL 1), and breaking "widespread semantic-web practice that triples are the exchange currency". The Working Group responded by pointing out the RDF/XML is the only syntax for which support is mandatory; several documents were revised and a new Overview document was added in order to make this more clear. The Working Group also clarified the motivation for the XML Serialisation, updating the New Features and Rationale document accordingly.


In the second Last Call round the Working Group received 19 comments, 3 of which related to rdf:text and are still under consideration. Of the remaining 16 comments, 12 were responded to by the Working Group to the acknowledged satisfaction of the commenters (modulo some additional suggested editorial changes in the case of BG1). In 3 cases, the commenter stated that they were "not happy" or "unconvinced", but would not object further:

  • In JC2, Jeremy Caroll objected to the owl:real datatype, mainly on technical grounds. The Working Group responded with technical arguments demonstrating that the concerns expressed were unfounded.
  • In JC3, Jeremy Caroll objected to the Manchester and XML serialisations. The Working Group responded by pointing out that Manchester Syntax is already in widespread use, and that the XML serialisation will improve integration with the XML tool chain, and that interoperability with RDF will be maintained by providing a GRDDL transform.
  • In JC6, Jeremy Caroll suggested an alternative RDF encoding of negative property assertions. The Working Group responded by recalling that this issue had been considered in detail and pointing out the disadvantages of the proposed change.

In one case, the comment was responded to by the Working Group, but the commenter has indicated that they are not satisfied with the answer and would object:

  • In JC1, Jeremy Carol referred to his LC1 comment, saying that "we seemed to reach a difference of opinion concerning the overall design". In particular, he referred to his suggestion to "rebrand most, if not all, of the new features of OWL2, as 'Web-SROIQ', and put them in a separate namespace, not branded as OWL so that the (vast) majority of Semantic Web users for whom these features are neither useful nor helpful, but merely confusing, can rest more easily in ignoring them". The Working Group responded by opining that, on the contrary, "using a separate namespace for some or all of the new features of OWL 2 or using a different name for OWL 2 itself would be confusing to the vast majority of Semantic Web users, even those who might not use all these new features". It was additionally pointed out that the new features are widely supported and the rationale behind their inclusion in OWL 2 is well documented in New Features and Rationale. It is perhaps worth pointing out that in his first comment Jeremy actually expressed support for several of the new features of OWL 2:
    • "We believe [Qualified Cardinality Restrictions] to be a useful addition to OWL. Several TopQuadrant customers would use this feature."
    • "[Property chain inclusion axioms] appear to be quite widely useful."
    • "Many TopQuadrant customers require [unary datatypes]. These make sense as part of the main SemanticWeb Recommendations."
    • "We are generally supportive [of profiles]"
