RE: [BioRDF] Meeting Notes Feb 27, 2006

Hi Xiaoshu,

http://www.omg.org/docs/ad/05-09-08.pdf

Because it is still being evaluated, this might only be available from
the OMG website to OMG members.

It is a very thorough document, well thought out.  They worked with many
of the W3C OWL and RDF experts.

cheers,
Michael
