"significant" might not have been the right word, but certainly extensive enough to get a slot on the agenda at the tech plenary. I am trying to maximize the utility of that slot, to me, as one of the responsible editors. The wording of the message was intended to convey clearly that the RDFCore WG is in charge of the document. The recent discussion on this topic that I have been party to has been on WebOnt; where there is more opposition to our wording than in RDFCore. Since the social meaning of RDF becomes the social meaning of OWL this seems in order. My hope is that with face2face conversation between people who feel strongly about this issue minor wording changes could be suggested that: - continue to create connection between RDF Formal semantics and the real world - continue to indicate the possibility of legally binding agreements - but avoid any sensitivities unintentionally transgressed As editor, I believe that if this is possible then the WG would be likely to approve such changes since: - the resolution of rdfms-assertion would still be conveyed - a comment about social meaning from PFPS http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-comments/2003JanMar/0192.html (which doesn't seem to have made it into the LC issue list - but is clearly intended as a Last Call comment) and probably others in webont may be addressable Since PFPS regards this as a "fatal flaw" I am under obligation to at least fully understand where he (and others) differ from the WG position which I support.
