Hello Scott
Thank you very much for sending an email around encouraging some HCLS people
to send us comments about OWL 2.
Several of the working drafts (see below) are now at last call -- for those
who are not familiar with W3C, this is the point at which the working group
declares that they have internal agreement on the design and throw it open
to public comment.
Regarding your point and question about the address of the last version :
for those people who would like to have a first overview of OWL 2 from an
applied view before looking at the spec, they may look at the "New Features
and Rationale" Working Draft document (it has been renamed) published
at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-owl2-new-features-20081202/
Now this document has been voted by the WG to become a Recommendation and is
a Recommendation-Track document. Its last version is available on the Wiki
at
http://www.w3.org/2007/OWL/wiki/New_Features_and_Rationale
It would be very helpful if HCLS interested parties can make some comment on
OWL 2, even if it is only to say that they are interested by OWL 2 !
Comments should go to the <public-owl-comments@w3.org> mailing list,
and the last call comment period expires on January 23rd.
Best
Christine
