I find these incredibly useful and among the most important to me in some of my research use cases which focus on finding mapping between terms in different ontologies -- we use foo:XXX daml:sameClassAs bar:YYY all the time, and cannot live without it. I like the "equivalentTo" idiom as well, but probably could live without it as long as I have sameXXXas and differentIndividualThan (or whatever we ended up calling it) I need these at the class, property, and instance level. So Peter, feel free to raise the issue, but I suspect you'll find we need some discussion. -JH </chair-neutrality-off> (All forgive me if I seem a bit crotchety today - it's a Jewish fast day and I haven't eaten or drunk for a lot of hours-- making me a bit irascible...) -- Professor James Hendler hendler@cs.umd.edu Director, Semantic Web and Agent Technologies 301-405-2696 Maryland Information and Network Dynamics Lab. 301-405-6707 (Fax) Univ of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742 240-731-3822 (Cell) http://www.cs.umd.edu/users/hendler
