Re: Draft response to LC comment 46

Uli,

I must admit I lost track of this issue after a while. However, the
Functional Syntax document does _not_ include any reference to the Data
Range extension as being 'feature at risk'. As such, unless a major
change, I do not think that this feature would be added to the main
document, that would clearly go way beyond Last Call...

My recollection (and I may be wrong) is that [1] might be published as a
separate WG note that can then be implemented, as an additional feature,
by OWL 2 tools. But that is a different statement.

Again, I may have missed something.

Cheers

Ivan
