The last specific proposal from Peter: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-owl-wg/2008Apr/0212.html Says: > An ontology SHOULD NOT import multiple versions of the same > ontology, i.e., different ontology documents with the same ontology > URI but that > do not share an owl:versionInfo annotation value. However, the syntax document currently says: > The OWL 2 specification provides no means for checking whether O is > compatible with the actually imported ontology versions. > Furthermore, if the ontologies imported into O additionally import > other ontologies, it is possible for O to import two different, > possibly incompatible, versions from the same ontology series. OWL > 2 provides no built-in means for detecting such situations. > Extensions providing such a mechanism, however, can be implemented > on top of OWL 2 import mechanism presented here. > > -Alan
