Excellent summary, Jeremy.

Theoretically, perhaps, but not practically. This is not acceptable, unfortunately, as that does not provide us with any means for global typing and precludes the use of schema implied typing. It also prevents any means of asserting system typing on locally typed knowledge, which needs both local and global types asserted. S-A alone cannot provide a complete solution. It would be great if it could, but it can't.

Is this a bad thing? I thought this was a strength ;-) Cheers, Patrick -- Patrick Stickler Phone: +358 50 483 9453 Senior Research Scientist Fax: +358 7180 35409 Nokia Research Center Email: patrick.stickler@nokia.com
