Re: Agenda for Teleconference.2008.08.13

Hi Peter,

Here is an email from Alan Rector at the end of 2006 while the OWL 1.1  
submission was being written. Note the point about priority requests.  
These are still not addressed. Having SKOS be representable in OWL 2  
DL is also a goal that has been put forth.
