Oooops, sorry, I didn't save it. The new text is there now: [http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wg/wiki/UCR/Publication_of_Intensional%2C_Interlinked_Metadata]. And yes, the interlinked part is there and also reflected in the new title, I agree it's important. David/Allen/Paula: The use case has a new title so should be moved. This has some bigger implications for editing. Axel, ASAP let us know if the new wording is OK. -Chris Axel Polleres wrote: > Chris Welty wrote: >>>> Whether used correctly or not, I agree that it's probably not >>>> necessary >>>> to the use case. >>> >>> Now as you say it, the only argument that could count against >>> IDB/EDB distinction might be that it is slightly misinterpretable, >>> since in the deductive database use, EDB/IDB are often viewed >>> disjoint IIRC, which is too restrictive in general... >> >> >> No, the argument is that this is not what intensional means in the >> dictionary, which is what the vast majority of our audience will use >> to look it up.
