Re: Datatyping desiderata, take 2

I am comfortable with this edition *if* in the idiom examples the same
ontology is used for all examples -- i.e. only 'ex:' and not 'exA:',
'exB:', etc. I think this is fundamental to achieving a common basis
for discussion and comparison. The different namespaces are IMO artificial
and not justified for the sake of showing how each idiom expresses what
supposedly is the same knowledge.

Also, it may be useful to mention for each idiom where they are
known to be or thought to be in use. P and D are used by DAML. A
variant of D is used by DC. Did I understand correctly that S/A
and/or S/B are used by CC/PP?

As for the objection I raised to the equivalence of (a) and (b)
in section 9, that was due to my own misunderstanding and I
withdraw my objection. It reads fine to me.

Cheers,

Patrick
