Alan, You quote: > > 2.1 Document Conformance > Several syntaxes have been defined for OWL 2 ontology documents, some > or all of which could be used by OWL 2 tools for exchanging documents. > However, conformant OWL 2 tools that take ontology documents as > input(s) must accept ontology documents using the RDF/XML > serialization [OWL 2 Mapping to RDF Graphs], and conformant OWL 2 > tools that publish ontology documents must, if possible, be able to > publish them in the RDF/XML serialization if asked to do so (e.g., via > HTTP content negotiation). OWL 2 tools may also accept and/or publish > ontology documents using other serializations, for example the XML > Serialization [OWL 2 XML Syntax]. Which says qualifies the "must" in "MUST, if possible, be able to ..." When is it not possible? (follow-up Q if relevant: who decides?) Andy
