XML News from Wednesday, December 24, 2003

The W3C Web Ontology Working Group has issued proposed recommendations of all six of its specifications:

Quoting from the overview document,

The OWL Web Ontology Language is designed for use by applications that need to process the content of information instead of just presenting information to humans. OWL facilitates greater machine interpretability of Web content than that supported by XML, RDF, and RDF Schema (RDF-S) by providing additional vocabulary along with a formal semantics. OWL has three increasingly-expressive sublanguages: OWL Lite, OWL DL, and OWL Full.

Comments on all six are due by January 19.
