Re: OWL and RDFS (from public-webont-comments@w3.org)

Ok, 
I have understood. The key is parser behaviour.

If RDFS parser finds an element that it doesn't understand (e.g. owl:....), parser ignores it semantically ( in the sense that for the parser is just an arbitrary namespace and the element doesn't add any new meaning ) but it checks if this element are sintactically correct.

because

OWL is a SEMANTIC extension of RDFS (not sintactical) and it use RDFS sintax! 

Thanks for your answers.
Davide.
