I think as a vehicle for conveying the XML > Schema to users, the document is perfectly reasonable. The schema > seems good and everything lines up with the structural specification. > > However, I think if some of the intent of the document is as a > reference for implementors, it needs some more content. There's only > one simple example, and the rest of the document is dominated by the > schema itself. I think if there were a few more examples, especially > some non-trivial ones, that would be very helpful. Furthermore, > there's a reference in the document that some things in the OWL2 spec > cannot be captured in the XML schema, but there is not an example, or > any clear explanation of why that is the case. That is useful > information, and would have made the document more valuable, > especially to someone trying to implement the spec. > > Of course, if it's not intended as a guide or reference for > implementors, I think its fine. But if people are supposed to refer > to this while working on a parser, I think it falls short. > > Cheers, > > Mike >
