I'd _love_ to model some of the temporal aspects of our authority data using OWL Time and then use that to define classes like RenaissancePerson (a Person born or active during the C15 and C16 expressed as an owl:Restriction on a foaf:Person). However, given the release cycles we have here in the DNB there is absolutely no chance I can have that published before September. Is it absolutely necessary that it goes to Proposed Rec during the WG's lifetime?

Best,

Lars
