D-entailment (all flavors), and all OWL profiles quite easy. These  
answers are the same for all of them to get a reasonable (and  
interoperable) entailment regime. Basically, you end up with a set of  
groundings for any query such that

OH! That gives me the 5)

	So, does a query to an OWL DL ontology have to be OWL DL? What  
happens if it isn't?

You end up with a set of queries (all possible groundings of the
