I believe that the draft has some problems with its OWL syntax (actually, I
believe that the examples are not even valid RDF).  Many uses of
owl:TransitiveProperty and owl:SymmetricProperty are as

<owl:ObjectProperty rdf:ID="....">
 <owl:TransitiveProperty />
 ...
</owl:ObjectProperty>

I believe that this must be changed to

<owl:ObjectProperty rdf:ID="....">
 <rdf:type rdf:resource="&owl;TransitiveProperty" />
 ...
</owl:ObjectProperty>

I also worry about the repeated use of rdf:ID in the draft.  The pointer to
wine.owl doesn't go anywhere, however, so I can't check this.

PS: A pointer to wine.owl would be very useful.
