As Mike Dean mentioned a few weeks back, we have released the first real langauge-based working drafts of the OWL langauge - successor to DAML+OIL. We could use some feedback as to whether we are going in the right direction. The document http://www.w3.org/TR/owl-features/ is a short summary of the language and will show what has changed so far from DAML+OIL. We would welcome feedback on the public mailing list (see below) if you have issues with any of changes or, in fact, if you think these changes are positive -- i.e. just a "this looks good" would be useful feedback We would particularly like feedback as to whether the naming of a subset (Owl Lite in these documents) is a good or bad idea. In addition, there are some who feel that stopping at OWL Lite would be a good idea (i.e. come out with a simpler version w/less inferential power, but easier to implement) - we need feedback on this as well thanks much Jim H CoChair, Web Ontology Working Group At 2:59 PM -0400 8/6/02, Mike Dean wrote: >X-Authentication-Warning: mail.daml.org: majordom set sender to >[email protected] using -f >To: [email protected] >Subject: OWL Working Drafts published >Date: Tue, 06 Aug 2002 14:59:59 -0400 >From: Mike Dean <[email protected]> >Sender: [email protected] > >The first Working Drafts for the OWL Web Ontology Language >have been published by W3C [1].
