Editor's breakout Scribe: C. Welty Discussion of what we're doing Question about implication of last call, all documents shoudl go to "last call" together, all documents that are considered critical/normative. Clearly the normative documents are: AS&S Test owl.owl (?) [issue concerning rdfs:comments here if this is normative] Guide and FS are non-normative, but will go to lc as well. Given common practice agrees, consensus was this is the document picture, with REF still to discuss. series editor - nice idea, not feasable Target audiences have been identified UML presentation has been delegated to Masahiro Hori, who is also doing the XML presentation syntax (or did it). These should be notes, with examples in Guide appendices [does this create a problem if XML & UML are non-normative notes] meaning of imports is resolved meaning of sameas is sameindividualas. Using sameas on classes puts you in OWL full. Guide should say this. Ask DanC about rdf:about in the ontology header Linking documents: AS&S has anchor points. Guide has a list of links. Should there be a logical linking structure, ie In text: OV->Guide Guide->AS&S REF->AS&S Tables: Every doc has a table that references itself REF->Guide REF->AS&S Guide->Ref Guide->AS&S Term consistency: [ -object -resource for RDF resources instance individual -class member ] An individual is an instance of a class [ ontology -knowledge base ] ontology is the import closure of documents document in the web sense [ -element XML sense -entity XML sense -attribute XML sense -node RDF sense component or peice for parts of a definition e.g. class description ] [ -symbol -term URI REf for names Language COnstruct for things like OWL:Class vocabulary RDF model theory sense (set of URI refs) ] [ class language construct concept informal term for abstractions "in the world" - type the RDF sense - the instance relation class expression class definition - informal term for talking about an owl:class tag and its pieces property defintion - informal term for talking about an owl:class tag and its pieces set - mathematical sets ] [ restriction - makes a constraint, local by default local restriction global restriction - reserved for domain and range constraint - the effect of a restriction ] FS dumbed down to OV What to do with REF? Quick ref owl.owl description Full reference Decided on turning REF into a real OWL Reference: - informal description of all language features - hlink to AS&S for each - dustbin Add relationship to other documents to each doc Roadmap on OWL webpage -- 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
