Possible response to http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webont-comments/2003Jun/0081

Dear Davide,

since OWL Test Cases is the only document still in last call, I will take
your comment as a comment on:

http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-owl-test-20030528/

I believe that the functionality that you want is legal OWL, being merely a
variation in the XML used, but is not illustrated in OWL test cases (nor any
of the other documents).

Would you accept the following editorial change as addressing your point:

In:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-owl-test-20030528/byFunction#imports-003

changing the premises from:

]]

Please reply, cc-ing public-webont-comments@w3.org, whether such a change
would be satisfactory, in which case I will make the change in the editors'
draft.
