just to add some support to this thread 1 - i am strongly supportive of this need for having simple understandable descriptions of at least one kind of user we believe should use each fragment. 2 - on the 3 points below, if i had 2 and 3 below, i would use them right away. my restatement of what i would use today would be: 2a Creating inference graphs from RDF data by performing rule-based forward chaining thus making information that is implicit in the rdf explicit in the rdf graph. 3a Efficiently querying the resulting inference RDF graph with standard web query languages including SPARQL. I specifically was silent on the not necessarily complete - if i could have complete algorithms, that is better, but incomplete is still useful. i would use this immediately in my joint work on instance evaluation. deborah Michael Schneider wrote: > Carsten Lutz wrote: > > >> PS: Zhe: can you provide a one-liner describing the most >> typical scenario >> for OWL-R?
