In previous WebOnt WG publications, I neglected to
follow this rule...

"All disclosure statements made by W3C Members are made public with each
publicly-visible Working Draft (public Working Draft, Last Call Working
Draft, Candidate Recommendation, Proposed Recommendation,
Recommendation)."

In preparation for a Candidate Recommendation publication of
OWL, the WebOnt WG disclosures page
  http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/WebOnt/discl
  $Revision: 1.14 $ of $Date: 2003/08/11 19:01:19 $
now includes details about each member organization's
patent disclosure statements. (expect the formatting
to change; there's some sort of common style emerging).

For the most part, it just gives the date each organization
checked the "no claims" box on the call for participation,
but for Lucent, Network Inference, and Stanford, who didn't check any
of the boxes, it has a copy of the statements they sent.
