Hi Peter, i think some people made rights comments. We should make recommentations on possible changes of RDF(S) that would allow us to provide OWL as a proper extension (i.e., syntactical and semantical at least approximative). I talked today with Pat and he seems to have a proposal for a small fix at the RDF level that would solve the problem. My main expectation would be that reasoning at an RDFS level is 100% identical with the equivalent part of OWL. I would not care so much about minor differences at an RDF level. Proposed actions: 1) The working group gives us another two weeks to upgrade our layering analysis and to include Pats recent move. 2) Then another person (I am thinking on Frank) draws operational conclusions out of it for the working group. 3) The working group votes in an informed manner over the remaining one solution that is likely to remain anyway.
