ANN: Draft text fragment ontology for NIF 2.0

Dear lists (nlp2rdf, uri@w3c, open annotation@w3c),

we would like to announce a very early first draft of the fragment 
ontology for the NLP Interchange Format (NIF) as a basis for discussion.

We do this with the following motivation:
1. We think that you might have had similar thoughts and encountered 
similar problems.
2. We would like NIF 2.0 to be designed to be interoperable from the start.
3. There are some problems that may be really difficult to tackle and 
we  everybody's ideas and  help to do it right.

Especially, the question whether:

<rfc5147Selection> ;**

owl:sameAs <http://nlp2rdf.lod2.eu/usecases/plaintext.txt>  .

*
To collect feedback efficiently, we have deployed this state-of-the-art 
web ontology editor. Please look at the most simple ontology first. It 
is called *fragment.ttl* (inf and val are for reasoning) :
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B1Mk5ouIspH1N3QxMFFzVlZLbVk/edit?pli=1
Don't hesitate to comment on the lists or the document. The ontology are 
also available online, but not synced with the Google Doc.

We started to make a collection of use cases for NIF 2.0, please add 
your use case and we will try to honor it during the development of NIF 
2.0 .
