Re: OWL-WG comment on CURIE

Thanks for this comment.  On a personal note, I would mention that as 
far as I am concerned the SPARQL model for abbreviated IRI via the use 
of PREFIX is compatible with the current CURIE specification.  If it is 
not, I would be shocked, since it was our intent that it fit within the 
model.
