RESOLVED: Close Issue 6, Issue 7. Issue 27. Issue 33. Issue 37 based on Peter's changes.
Datatype issues not in n-ary discussion
Action 27: jeremy to show why rdfs:datatype and owl:DataRange are different
Bijan Parsia: Using XML Schema's namespace requires doing in a way they can accept. In particular, need approval for using their namespace.
Bijan Parsia: A URI is different from a qualified name. Only true in RDF land.
Bijan Parsia: Can't use existing element as attribute or vice-versa.
Bijan; You can derive a URI from a qname, but the XML WG might not approve of the URI.
Action 17: Smith to take the issue of URI/qname approival from XML WG
Action 28: Jeremy to edit Issue 29 to deal with RDFS data type
Issue 31
Alan Ruttenberg: We can define datatypes in XML, and if we lefft everything alone, could import documents with XML datatypes. Would be annoying because of one file per datatype.
Jeremy Carroll: Can put multiple datatypes on same file with different ID's.
Bijan Parsia: Need both inlining and referencing datatypes.
Bijan Parsia: WOuld rather have one way of referencing datatypes.
Jeremy Carroll: Final document does have one way (picks a winner).
Alan Ruttenberg: Would be good to settle ourrequirements on this.
Alan Ruttenberg: Heard four opinions on requirements so far.
Peter Patel-Schneider: No mechanism for datatype import in the member submission.
Alan; Any objection to discussion on email on requirements?
Bijan Parsia: No bias in sub mission against importing.
Evan Wallace: MIght as well use best practices, otherwise fall bak to inline.
Alan Ruttenberg: Agreement to discuss on mailing list?
Action 29: Mike to lead discussion on datatype import.
Clarification of Mike's last action: to convene half-hour telecon on data types issue

Ontology elements
(Scribe changed to Sandro Hawke)
Bijan Parsia: Tools should not use the Ontology Name to check for inclusion cycles.
Alan Ruttenberg: but protege-4 does that.
Bijan Parsia: I think that's a bug
Alan Ruttenberg: Matthew believes it's right, I think....
Alan Ruttenberg: And it's not that he's confused. He's sure his approach is right.
Alan Ruttenberg: If this issue can proceed independently, something something something.
Bijan Parsia: Definition of ontology closure can be separated from ontology naming.
Bijan Parsia: We could just use XML Include, and things would come out pretty much the same.
Bijan Parsia: If nothing else is different other than the ontology name.... I don't know what one would make of that.
Bijan Parsia: Import closure reaches a fixpoint when doing more imports doesn't add anything.
Alan Ruttenberg: Your defining an import-processing-model, calling in 'include', in which the ontology name doesn't matter.
Peter Patel-Schneider: in 1.0 import is defined completely independently of ontology names.
Peter Patel-Schneider: in 1.1, it's completely different. [ some O....O' definition ]
Alan Ruttenberg: If one wants to sign the ontology, ....
Peter Patel-Schneider: I'm not saying what it should be, I'm saying what 1.1 says.
Let's deprecate owl:imports!!!!!!!!!!
Alan Ruttenberg: there is a requirement from users that people be able to sign their ontologies, include metadata, include versioning, ....
Bijan Parsia: The 1.1 defn is a bug because it's less-liberal than 1.0, so it's not backward compatible.
MikeSmith, when you use "/me" like that, it's left out of the IRC log.
Bijan Parsia: I think we should align the current specs with OWL 1.1
Bijan Parsia: ... and then think about a deeper redesign, eg using XML Include.
Alan Ruttenberg: I don't know anyone who like owl:import as is.
Action 18: Alan to brain dump on owl imports issue to mailing list
Peter Patel-Schneider: should rich annotations be on the agenda at F2F1?
Action 19: Alan to include imports, possibility of annotations as subject for f2f
