They are defined as owl:Things - as I understood OWL, that makes them rdfs:classes, and therefore amenable to being subclassed. This was certainly the intention, to allow precisely the kind of use case you outlined (the details of the use case I had were to describe fail in terms of more or less complete failure to do something, or a partial attempt that still failed to meet the requirement). Being able to add human-readable text is nice, but adding it as a label for a new value is much more extensibility-friendly than adding it as messages to "refine" the meaning of a standard result. If I have misunderstood how owl:Thing works, is there a simple way to change the Schema that would achieve the goal? cheers Chaals -- Charles McCathieNevile, Opera Software: Standards Group hablo español - je parle français - jeg lærer norsk chaals@opera.com Try Opera 9.1 http://opera.com
