I guess we will just have to agree to disagree. But I am left wondering if you are genuinely unable to understand his point, or are being deliberately obfuscatory.

The fact that this uses OWL terminology seems irrelevant to me. Clearly the issue at which this is aimed is an RDF concern, and indeed arises directly from our charter. Given the decision we took last week, however, we could respond citing that decision. >> >> Pat >> >> On Oct 8, 2013, at 7:33 AM, Peter F.

It is obvious that the use of OWL is not central to the point that Jeremy is making here; but in any case, the issue concerns the relationship between an IRI used as a graph label in an RDF Dataset, and the same IRI used to refer inside RDF, and this matter is outside the scope of the OWL WG. >>>> >>>> Pat >>>> >>>> On Oct 7, 2013, at 10:37 AM, Peter F.
