Based on the discussions on appending the closing of Issue
5.13 [1] during our December 18 telecon [2], I propose that
we replace owl:Ontology with the following definitions:

  <rdfs:Class rdf:ID="FullOntology">
    <rdfs:label>FullOntology</rdfs:label>
    <rdfs:comment>an OWL Full ontology</rdfs:comment>
  </rdfs:Class>

  <rdfs:Class rdf:ID="DLOntology">
    <rdfs:label>DLOntology</rdfs:label>
    <rdfs:comment>an OWL DL ontology</rdfs:comment>
    <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#FullOntology"/>
  </rdfs:Class>

  <rdfs:Class rdf:ID="LiteOntology">
    <rdfs:label>LiteOntology</rdfs:label>
    <rdfs:comment>an OWL Lite ontology</rdfs:comment>
    <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#DLOntology"/>
  </rdfs:Class>

I'd also like to suggest that we add owl:Document as a
superclass of owl:FullOntology, for associating versioning
and other information with instances.
