Re: Misleading definitions of dqv properties

Hi Jeremy,

  as far as I understand the examples you have mentioned  are not
 inconsistencies,  DQV and DAQ are actually two separated namespaces, and
thus even if dqv:X and daq:X  have similar "names", they are two distinct
properties.

 During the process of inclusion of  DAQ into DQV, the group  members
 decided to  invert some properties  because they thought they would  have
been  more intuitive in that way, or for other  reasons .. .  I have to
admit    I  am a little reluctant  in amending the group's decision  at
this stage, even   considering the amount of issues  we have yet had the
time to address  ;)

 I can agree that having the same X with different meaning might be somehow
confusing when you use both ontologies and you move back and forth  from
DAQ to DQV,   but  sincerely, I consider this as a very minor  issue, I
also believe that no many persons will really need to move back and forth
from  DAQ to  DAQ.

At the end, if I am wrong, and moving back and forth from DQV to DAQ is
such a  common need,   we can always consider to provide a SPARQL
script/query to automatize the translation between  the two ontologies, as
 suggested by Phil in the last DQV call.

Does it sound reasonable?


Cheers,
Riccardo

PS. Could you share your last version of DAQ, I do not see the inverse
properties you have mentioned at the DAQ web site I usually refer to  [1].
