Issue 3.1 - Local Restrictions

This issue was opened as part of discussion entitled "OWL Compliance 
Level 1" [1].

Issue 3.1 - Local Restrictions

  Proposal - CLOSE THIS ISSUE

   The issue when raised concerned the fact that the requirements 
document did not explicitely call for local discussions.  Later 
discussion by the WG made it clear that this is considered an 
important functionality, that it is supported by DAML+OIL, and that 
OWL will support local restrictions.  The OWL Core document [1] 
proposes to include local restrictions. The Abstract Syntax document 
[2] does not explicitely call for local restrictions, but it appears 
to be allowable within the proposed framework.
