The use of "existing" in section 3 does not seem to add anything. Indeed, any future serialization that has built-in language tagging would presumable also use the usual RDF form. As we are agreed on the intent of the abbreviation of rdf:text, we suggest that adding an explicit statement about the intent would be helpful: suggestion: Sec 3.2: """ The effect of these abbreviations is that there will be no occurrence of an RDF literal with datatype "rdf:text" in RDF generated by an OWL 2 or RIF processor. This maximises compatibility with RDF toolsets. """ This would be especially helpful because in the RDF Syntax specification it says, referring to the rdf:namespace: http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-syntax-grammar-20040210/#section-Namespace 5.1 The RDF Namespace and Vocabulary """ Any other names are not defined and SHOULD generate a warning when encountered, but should otherwise behave normally.
