Then an issue that I might express as "OWL Full compatibility" is perhaps not entirely a technical issue, but more about supporting HP's customer base ... and equally what might be expressed as 'decidability' might actually be more about supporting certian bioscience customers. i.e. we talk with our customers, we understand their needs in terms of our theoretical constructs, we then rearticulate those needs to the WG, but only in terms of the theoretical constructs, whereas the original customer requirements might be revealing Jeremy
