IMHO this is a not completely unreasonable request. I would propose to respond by adding to the Introduction of Profiles: * brief explanations of the acronyms, namely: - The EL acronym reflects the profile's basis in the EL family of description logics [EL++]. - The QL acronym reflects the fact that query answering in this profile can implemented by rewriting queries into a standard relational Query Language. - The RL acronym reflects the fact that reasoning in this profile can be implemented using a standard Rule Language. * the statement "Note that each of the profiles is a (strict) syntactic subset of OWL DL, but none of the profiles is a subset of another." Comments and/or other suggestions?
