As I said when we discussed this in January, combining properties and classes is common in some models. UML supports this with the Association Class construct, and I saw this construct used liberally in models at last week's OMG meeting. It is also true that it is common to encounter the problem of integrating models after the fact that have made different design choices leading to a need to reconcile the use of both classes and properties for the same concept. As long as we are going to include punning in the OWL2 language, then we should have a darn good reason if we are not going to support class-property punning. -Evan
