Heh, I grumbled to the protege-owl folks a couple of weeks ago about Protege crashing when it loaded a certain file (the SKOS Core schema). I've been assurred that they have been putting a lot of effort into stability (and I posted my apology for grumbling too hard last night). If there's a newer build of Protege available, it might be worth a try. If you post your schema on the Web I'm sure someone will be willing to check it out. The W3C validator is very handy, but there's only so far the notion of validity can go in this context. The Pellet reasoner can do consistency checking: http://www.mindswap.org/2003/pellet/demo.shtml Other editing tools I'm aware of are RDFAuthor: http://rdfweb.org/people/damian/RDFAuthor/ SWOOP : http://www.mindswap.org/2004/SWOOP/ Altova SemanticWorks (pay-for, but there's a 30 day demo): http://www.altova.com/products_semanticworks.html Cheers, Danny. -- http://dannyayers.com
