ACTION: Jos de Roo to propose a test based on the example given
by peter (context lost)
DONE

2.0 QA Review of OWL drafts
ACTION: DanC to bring up QA review of OWL Semantics with WG
DONE
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webont-comments/2003May/0002.html
Part of W3C process is QA review, with a document saying what should be
done. The QA review of our documents says that we should do certain things
that don't look very palatable.
ACTION: Sandro Hawke, Evan Wallace - review Jeremy's review of the QA last
call so that it can be sent back as a WG review
X.0 Agenda - changes to OWL semantics
Peter PS gave a quick description of a proposed change to the direct
semantics to handle annotations. Dan Connolly believes that the changes
are technical and limited to places where people probably don't care.
ACTION: Jeremy Carroll - review proposed change to direct semantics that
handles annotations better.
Y.0 Agenda - Sean's document
General agreement that the document is useful, and should be put somewhere.
A proposal to append it to reference and refer to to it from overview and
guide was made and carried.
ACTION: Guus Schreiber - work with Sean to put appendix in Reference
ACTION: Mike Smith - write paragraph that points to the appendix for Guide
ACTION: Frank - write paragraph that points to the appendix for Overview
Jim Hendler is on the hook to get back to the commentor.
Z.0 Agenda - rdfs:Class vs owl:Class
Lots of discusion on the difference and where it matters.
Test cases
1/ rdfs:Class rdf:type _:x.
_:x owl:complementOf owl:Class.
is inconsistent in OWL Full.
2/ rdfs:Class rdf:type _:x .
_:x owl:intersectionOf _:l .
_:l rdf:first rdfs:Class .
_:l rdf:rest rdf:nil .
follows from the empty KB in OWL Full
but if owl:Class is a subclass of rdfs:Clas then it doesn't, because
the comprehension principle for owl:intersectionOf only works on lists
of OWL classes.
Dan Connolly mentioned that our response should refer to layering - our
design works - we don't have a design that works without an owl:Class.
ACTION: Frank van Harmelen write draft response for the comment on
owl:Class vs rdfs:Class
ACTION: Pat Hayes write draft response for the comment on
owl:Class vs rdfs:Class
3.0 Last Call Comments:
ACTION: JimH to prepare definitive list of LC issues for next telecon
DONE in
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003May/0410.html
Deferred to next week

16:23:45 <pfps> 2.0 QA Review
16:23:47 <DanC> Re: QA Review of owl-semantics
16:23:47 <DanC> From: Dan Connolly (connolly@w3.org)
16:23:47 <DanC> Date: Thu, May 01 2003 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webont-comments/2003May/0002.html
16:25:33 <pfps> DanC - part of W3C process is QA review, with a document saying what should be done
16:25:58 <pfps> DanC - the QA review of our documents says that we should do certain things that don't look very palatable
16:26:18 <pfps> DanC - volunteers for talking to QA wanted
16:27:40 <pfps> some comments about eggs
16:27:57 <hth> hth has joined #webont
16:28:22 <jjc> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Apr/0158.html
16:28:25 <pfps> DanC - one comment to be addressed is tagging sections as normative
16:34:13 <ChrisW> Has there been a QA review of any other documents, or just AS&S?
16:34:17 <pfps> DanC - Jeremy has a review of the QA guidelines
16:35:18 <Zakim> +PatH
16:35:41 <pfps> ACTION - Sandro Hawke, Evan Statton - review Jeremy's response
16:36:26 <DanC> I'm not sure ChrisW; good question. my reply to their review of S&AS pointed them at other documents.
16:36:39 <pfps> Agenda - changes to OWL semantics
16:38:43 <pfps> Peter PS - vague description of proposed change to OWL semantics
16:39:03 <pfps> ACTION: Jeremy Carroll - review change
16:40:29 <pfps> DanC - change is technical -
16:41:00 <pfps> Jeremy Carroll - one test case can come from initial message
16:41:11 <pfps> Peter PS - another test case is in the message I sent out
16:41:44 <DanC> ACTION 2 = Jeremy Carroll - review change to S&AS semantics re annotation properties
16:42:16 <pfps> Agenda - Sean's document
16:42:36 <pfps> DanC - document was actually readable
16:42:48 <pfps> DanC - does the doc cover all the bases?
16:44:25 <pfps> JimH - request for such a document outstanding
16:45:10 <pfps> DanC - nice document - could be tacked on to Reference or, preferably, Guide
16:45:28 <pfps> Mike Smith - could be an appendix to Guide
16:46:56 <pfps> JimH - what if there are other rules? perhaps by other authors?
16:47:14 <pfps> DanC - we have to stop sometime
16:47:30 <pfps> JimH - perhaps some other forum will continue
16:47:40 <pfps> DanC - then that should be somewhere else
16:54:31 <DanC> PROPOSED: to append it to reference; refer to to it from overview and guide
16:56:28 <pfps> Proposal carries by consensus
16:57:04 <pfps> ACTION: Guus - work with Sean to put appendix in Reference
16:57:16 <pfps> ACITON: Mike Smith - write introduction paragraph for Guide
16:57:47 <pfps> ACTION: Frank - similar for Overview
16:57:54 <DanC> FYI, JimH is on the hook to get back to the commentor.
16:58:35 <pfps> Agenda - rdfs:Class vs owl:Class
16:58:43 <pfps> DanC - proposed test
16:58:53 <DanC> [[[
16:58:53 <DanC> rdfs:Class rdf:type _:x.
16:58:53 <DanC> _:x owl:complementOf owl:Class.
16:58:53 <DanC> as an otest:InconsistencyTest
16:59:00 <DanC> ]]] -- http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Jun/0031.html
16:59:35 <pfps> JimH - how can we describe this in a way that is understandable?
17:00:07 <jjc> q+
17:00:47 <pfps> Jos - this can be proved inconsistent in OWL Full
17:05:02 <pfps> PeterPS - the situation is different in OWL DL - but the question can't be asked in OWL DL
17:06:16 <pfps> Jeremy - rdfs:subPropertyOf is different in RDF and OWL
17:06:50 <pfps> PatH - this is different from owl:Class and rdfs:Class
17:08:21 <ChrisW> PAT!!!!
17:08:26 <pfps> PatH - rdfs:Class is not a member of rdfs:Class in OWL Full
17:09:13 <pfps> DanC - rdfs:Class owl:sameAs owl:Class in OWL Full
17:09:47 <pfps> Jeremy - rdfs:Class owl:equivalentTo owl:Class in OWL Full
17:10:06 <pfps> Peter - rdfs:Class owl:sameAs owl:Class does not follow in OWL Full
17:11:39 <pfps> PatH - motivation - OWL DL and OWL Full are different - in OWL DL owl:Thing is not the universe but it is on OWL Full
17:12:02 <sandro> (How about owldl:Class)
17:12:11 <sandro> (for what Pat wants)
17:12:13 <guus> q+
17:12:50 <jimH> ack jjc
17:12:53 <jimH> ack guus
17:13:00 <DanC> ack danc
17:13:00 <Zakim> DanC, you wanted to propose dropping owl:Class in favor of rdfs:Class, to see what breaks
17:13:36 <pfps> Guus - in OWL Full the class extensions are the same
17:13:47 <DanC> (I already found out what breaks; support from WG members)
17:14:06 <jjc> q+
17:14:26 <pfps> JimH - what breaks if owl:Class is removed from the documents
17:14:50 <guus> q+
17:15:20 <pfps> PatH - then OWL DL willl have theorems that are false in RDFS
17:16:59 <pfps> JimH - given an RDFS document that uses rdfs:Class how can it be used as an OWL DL class
17:17:09 <pfps> PatH - you have to do some non-trivial work
17:18:33 <jjc> q+ to mention section 5.4 of S&AS
17:18:48 <DanC> q+ MikeS
17:18:52 <DanC> ack jjc
17:18:52 <Zakim> jjc, you wanted to mention section 5.4 of S&AS
17:19:12 <pfps> Jeremy - a lot of work has to be done in Section 5 of S&AS
17:19:36 <DanC> ack guus
17:20:23 <pfps> Guus - what about RDFS docs that don't fit into OWL DL
17:21:01 <DanC> ack DanC
17:21:01 <Zakim> DanC, you wanted to ask PatH if the owl:Class term is motivated by possible fixes to OWL in the future
17:21:24 <pfps> Guus - we need owl:Class because of OWL DL
17:22:14 <pfps> DanC - taking owl:Class out requires lots of work, including semantic layering, so no change
17:22:24 <pfps> Mike Smith - agree
17:22:43 <DanC> i.e. so no reopening semantic layering.
17:24:05 <JosD> q+
17:27:06 <jimH> ack mikes
17:27:13 <jimH> ack josd
17:27:13 <DanC> ack josd
17:28:23 <DanC> that would be more intuitive to me... to say that owl:Class rdfs:subClassOf rdfs:Class
17:28:41 <pfps> q+
17:31:14 <ChrisW> gotta go
17:31:17 <Zakim> -welty
17:31:28 <pfps> Peter PS - if owl:Class is not the same as rdfs:Class - then in OWL Full it does not follow that rdfs:Class belongs to the owl:intersectionOf [rdfs:Class]
17:31:45 <pfps> ack pfps
17:31:50 <timfinin> bye
17:31:56 <timfinin> timfinin has left #webont
17:32:05 <Zakim> -TimF
17:32:39 <pfps> DanC - response should refer to layering - our design works - we don't have a design that works without an owl:Class
17:35:08 <jjc> rdfs:class rdf:type [intersectionOf rdfs:Class]
17:38:28 <DanC> jim, we're discussing the layering issue. this is bordering on out of order...
17:39:34 <pfps> JimH - volunteer to write an e-mail to futher this disucssion without opening too much other stuff
17:40:18 <seanb> bye
17:40:25 <Zakim> -SeanB
17:43:14 <DanC> oops; my memory of the issues list is somewhat creative...
17:43:38 <pfps> ACTION: Frank vH write draft response
17:43:50 <pfps> ACTION: PatH write draft response (also for owl:Class)
17:44:19 <DanC> consensus http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2002Oct/0022.html doesn't have a diagram; it just expresses the stuff in prose, I guess
17:44:20 <Zakim> -Evan_Wallace
