Dear Chris,
thank you very much for the guidance you are providing as a chair to our
discussion.
Still, I am not completely sure to fully understand your point and I would
appreciate you
could refine your argument on what is in and what is out of the scope of
the discussion
of the working group.
1) You decide it is out of the scope of the working group to
discuss SWRL?
Fine with me, because ... <censored>.
2) You decide it is out of the scope of the working group to
discuss the rationale
of restriction the expressive power of a logical language? I am
willing to follow you
on this since the charter already implemented such an argument in
an excellent
manner. Instead of having such a discussion it may be enough to
point from time
to time to our charter. I assume, nobody of us wants to end up
with SOL=RIF?
3) You decide it is out of the scope of the working group to
discuss the rationale
for properly defining the expressive power of a rule language? I
am willing to follow you
on this since the charter already implemented such an argument in
an excellent
manner. Instead of having such a discussion it may be enough to
point from time
to time to our charter. I assume, nobody of us wants to end up
with RIF is not
implementable?
I would very much appreciate if you could clarify your leadership to one of
your humble
WG member.
-Dieter
