[LC Response] To Chris Welty Re: non-disjoint value spaces for numeric datatypes

Dear Chris and the RIF WG,

Thank you for your message
<http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-owl-comments/2009Jan/0031.html>
on the OWL 2 Web Ontology Language last call drafts.


Due to your comment, as well as other comments, the OWL WG has decided
to make the OWL value spaces for all primitive XML Schema datatypes
disjoint.  This means that the OWL value spaces of xsd:decimal,
xsd:float, and xsd:double are pairwise disjoint, which we believe is
also the case in RIF.


Please acknowledge receipt of this email to
<mailto:public-owl-comments@w3.org> (replying to this email should
suffice). In your acknowledgment please let us know whether or not you
are satisfied with the working group's response to your comment.

Regards,
Peter F. Patel-Schneider
on behalf of the W3C OWL Working Group
