There is nothing alarming about making a distinction between the thing and its extension and allowing things to belong to (even their own) extension. I really like that very much; still for your case my take would be :isManufacturerOf rdfs:domain :Manufacturer; rdfs:range :ManufacturedGoods. plus :Mustangs rdfs:subClassOf :ManufacturedGoods. :myMustang rdf:type :Mustangs. :FordCompany :isManufacturerOf :myMustang. and have Geoff's :FordCompany rdf:type [a owl:Restriction; owl:onProperty :isManufacturerOf; owl:someValuesFrom :Mustangs]. -- Jos De Roo, AGFA http://www.agfa.com/w3c/jdroo/ "Hans Teijgeler" <hans.teijgeler@quicknet.nl> 17/10/2005 07:59 To: Jos De_Roo/AMDUS/MOR/Agfa-NV/BE/BAYER@AGFA cc: "'Paap, Onno'" <onno.paap@ezzysurf.com>, <semantic-web@w3c.org>, <semantic-web-request@w3.org> Subject: RE: Mustangs vs myMustang Hi Jos, Thanks! Your last sentence: " That is indeed *possible* in RDF and OWL Full" is rather alarming to me as being seen by you as substandard. If this were to comply with the constraints of OWL DL, how should I model it? (your assumption about the base URI was correct).

What is the base URI for that rdf:ID="Mustang"? If it is http://www.example.org/library# then <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:rdfs="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#" xmlns:owl="http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#" xml:base="http://www.example.org/library#"> <owl:Thing rdf:ID="Mustang"/> <owl:Thing rdf:about="#Mustang"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.example.org/library#Mustang"/> </owl:Thing> </rdf:RDF> is saying that :Mustang rdf:type :Mustang. or saying that :Mustang is in it's own extension (and :myMustang is also in that extension) That is indeed *possible* in RDF and OWL Full -- Jos De Roo, AGFA http://www.agfa.com/w3c/jdroo/
