proposed addendum to reply to http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webont-comments/2003May/0050.html

I have made the minor changes to the direct model theory to address a
problem raised by the RDF Core WG and formulated a reply.

Here is an addendum to the previous reply.

The newest editor's draft of S&AS (of 4 June 2003, available at
http://www-db.research.bell-labs.com/usr/pfps/owl/) has a new Section 3.4
that should satisfactorily address this issue.

The basic change is that the interpretation of Ontology Annotations is done
in an environment where there is a resource for the ontology, named or not.

Please reply to this message as to whether this response is satisfactory,
