I previously thought that I was the only one using equivalentTo but not the sameXXXas, obviously I was wrong, and at least the chat discussion seems to favor the provision of equivalentTo. I therefore will suggest a different CLOSING motion: Issue 4.6 EquivalentTo The decision is for OWL to provide the same syntactic forms as were provided in DAML+OIL - this includes equivalentTo, sameClassAs, sameInstanceAs, and samePropertyAs. However, depending on the decision for issue 5.19 (Classes as Instances), some constraints may be placed as to what things can be asserted to be equivalentTo each other without violating semantic constraints. -- 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
