We have OWLSight into the problem...

Folks,

Mike Grove and Ron Alford have released a pre-alpha version of a Web  
based application for browsing OWL ontologies called OWLSight:
	http://pellet.owldl.com/ontology-browser/

(Blog post announcing it:
	http://clarkparsia.com/weblog/2007/08/03/owlsight-is-here/
)

OWLSight is to C&P, LLC  what the old Pellet demo was to Mindswap:  
Any easy, zero install way to play with (or seriously use!) the  
latest features of Pellet.

(Old demo: <http://www.mindswap.org/2003/pellet/demo.shtml>)

In this version, Mike and Ron exposed the explanation service we  
developed under contract to the National Cancer Institute.  
Entailments have a "Why?" button next to them which will pop up the  
set of sets of axioms sufficient to produce the entailment (including  
the unsatisfiability of a class).

(This functionality is not yet in a released version of Pellet.)

I'm sure you'll notice that the interface is very Swoopy :) Why fix  
what ain't broke?

Right now it uses the Manchester Syntax for class expressions:

OWLSight is unsupported, though we will work on it continuously. Bug  
reports and comments may be directed to the Pellet users list:

Cheers,
Bijan.
