That would be my preference, but I'm not sure the decision should be taken on a vocab-by-vocab basis. OWL Full systems I suspect are more likely to be comfortable with Web crawling. I expect it wouldn't be easy to get consensus on this, as the decision could be seen as answering the question "which is the default/main way of using OWL, and which is the niche interest specialist version? ...". cheers, Dan
