Was there at any point explicit rejection of have a mathematical real number datatype (possibly augmented with some constants such as INF, - INF) from which the rest of the numeric types were defined by restriction? We have a discussion going in the OWL working group, part of which is about the desirability of comparing a float to an integer. If they are disjoint, then that doesn't seem possible. However, it seems well defined to ask whether "2.1"^^xsd:float > "2"^^xsd:int Thanks, Alan
