I think that this rather proves Ian's point - I'm using Sean's species validator behind the scenes (and a few simple and no doubt defeasible heuristics), and it reports it as OWL Full. Maybe the question should instead have been "what is the best practice for *indicating* which semantic-web language and encoding is being used"? > It made me laugh though.
