Issue 13938: NamespaceDefinition is defined as a metaclass, without a stereotype (odm-rtf)
Source: Thematix Partners LLC (Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall, ekendall(at)thematix.com)
Nature: Revision
Severity: Significant
Summary: NamespaceDefinition is defined as a metaclass, without a stereotype, in the UML profile for RDF, which is not allowed in UML 2. The definition requires revision to include a stereotype.

Resolution: This is a fairly straightforward correction, as described in the resolution, below
Revised Text: Revise section 14.1.2.1 NamespaceDefinition, as follows:
1.	Rename the section from “NamespaceDefintion” to “Namespace Definitions”

2.	Under Stereotype and Base Class, change “None” to
“«namespaceDefinition» with base class of UML::InstanceSpecification”

3.	Under Properties, change 
namespaceURI: String [1] – the string representing the namespace URI
to
namespaceIRI: String [1] – the string representing the namespace IRI

4.	Under Constraints, change 
[2] The string value of the namespace URI must conform to the character encoding (including escape sequences and so forth) defined in [RDF Syntax] and [XMLNS].
to
[2] The string value of the namespace IRI must be a Unicode string that conforms to the syntax defined in RFC 3987, normalized according to Section 5 of RFC 3987 if possible.
