Why do we need a different namespace for the ontology and DM, when they are essentially descriptions of the same things/concetps? (There may be some additional "glue" URIs in the ontology, but I'd expect everything (or almost everything) identified as part of the DM to be formally described in the ontology.) The problem here is illustrated by the very existence of this agendum in the recent OWL group discussions: http://www.w3.org/2011/prov/wiki/PIL_OWL_Ontology_Meeting_2011-10-17#Adding_missing_PROV-DM_terms_to_PROV-O (thanks for the notes guys!) #g -- > On 12 Oct 2011, at 14:48, "Stian Soiland-Reyes"<soiland-reyes@cs.manchester.ac.uk> wrote: > >> On Tue, Sep 6, 2011 at 11:40, Provenance Working Group Issue Tracker >> <sysbot+tracker@w3.org> wrote: >>> >>> PROV-ISSUE-90 (namespace-in-ontology): Namespace used in ontology [Formal Model] >>> >>> http://www.w3.org/2011/prov/track/issues/90 >>> >>> Raised by: Stian Soiland-Reyes >>> On product: Formal Model >>> >>> The OWL at http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/raw-file/default/ontology/ProvenanceOntology.owl uses the namespace http://w3.org/ProvenanceOntology.owl# which sound quote temporary. >> >> Reading [1] we should probably go for a namespace like: >> >> http://www.w3.org/2011/10/prov >> >> We are not following the Pub-rules if we publish a first draft with >> unapproved namespaces. >> >> >> I guess we should use http://www.example.com/ for CrimeFile example, >> etc (according to RFC 2606) as they are not normative. >> >> >> We will need to tell someone important to get the proper webserver >> stuff set up - but I guess before we go to first public draft the >> namespace should be sorted for the ontology. >> >> >> PROV-DM says: [2] >> >> The PROV-DM namespace is http://www.w3.org/ns/prov-dm/ (TBC). >> >> >> Any particular reason this is in /ns/ instead of the /2011/-style? >> >> [1] http://www.w3.org/2005/07/13-nsuri >> [1] http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/raw-file/tip/model/ProvenanceModel.html#prov-dm-namespace >> >> -- >> Stian Soiland-Reyes, myGrid team >> School of Computer Science >> The University of Manchester >> > >
