Jim and Guus volunteered. Other members of WG encouraged to review RDF 2nd 
Last Call documents when they are published.

literal decision

Done:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Oct/0021.html

** 3.0 - CR and Test Issues
3.1 - Test approval

Proposal to approve extracredit tests
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Oct/0005.html

Inconclusive discussion of test I5.26-003  and Pellet's passing of it.
However, no one argued that the test should not be EXTRACREDIT.

Jeremy noted that the e-mail had three parts, and it was agreed to take it 
as a composite. (i.e. agreeing EXTRACREDIT as an approval level, and then 
approving tests to that level).

RESOLVED: to approve extracredit tests as in 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Oct/0005.html

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Oct/0003.html

Note some tests are excluded in the proposal, after discussion Thing-001 
was also excluded.

RESOLVED to approve tests per 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Oct/0003.html 
ammended to take out Thing-001


ACTION jjc update test spec with approvals. ETA friday next week or after
ACTION IanH follow up on Thing-001 and S&AS



3.2 - consistency of examples from the OWL guide

Long discussion.
Discussion of whether use of oneOf in the guide is merited.
Discussion of whether to reclassify tests as EXTRACREDIT.
Discussion of a new section in Guide to show an alternative model that's 
perhaps less natural but more  efficient.



ACTION JJC:  propose to make the existing guide tests extra credit,
ACTION jjc derive similar tests by mechanical transformation
ACTION Jos: make addtional query-style tests.

3.3 taken after 4.0

** 4.0 New Document - OWL implementation Hints?


Arguments made in favour of publishing as WG note.
Worry about workload for team contact.

ACTION jimH ask mindswap for review of Sean's doc
ACTION guus ask peter for review
ACTION jjc: review sean's document

A) URIs starting in "/" and "."

The tests are approved, and the confusion has subsided, no question is put.

B) deferred (time pressure and Peter is absent)

C) Semantic Layering Bug


RESOLVED to update previous decision on optionality of Ontology triple, 
etc. as per C/ Semantic layering bug in 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Oct/0006.html

(Proposed pfps - in e-mail, seconded jjc).
