SWRL 0.5 RDF Concrete Syntax

A couple of remarks about the RDF Concrete Syntax as described in [1].

The examples given in section 6.1 don't seem to correspond with the 
schema presented at [2]. They use

<swrl:individualPropertyAtom>
and
<swrl:classAtom>

rather than:

<swrl:IndividualPropertyAtom>
and
<swrl:ClassAtom>

(e.g. capitalisation is inconsistent). Also the examples use 
<ruleml:Imp> rather than <swrl:Impl> for the rules and <ruleml:head> and 
<ruleml:body> rather than <swrl:head> and <swrl:body>. This is somewhat 
ambiguous anyway as the context of the examples isn't given (so we don't 
actually know what the namespaces resolve to), but it's confusing at 
best. In fact [2] defines ruleml as an entity and namespace, but then 
never goes on to use it which seems a little strange.

Cheers,
