Issue 18833: Move Chapter 16 to an Informative Annex (odm-rtf) Source: Thematix Partners LLC (Mrs. Elisa F. Kendall, ekendall(at)thematix.com) Nature: Revision Severity: Significant Summary: Chapter 16, which has always been an informative section of the ODM specification, describes differences between UML and OWL 1.0, and provides some guidance on strategies for mapping one to the other, including a partial mapping in QVT. There are a number of issues with the text, including the fact that it is outdated, but many people find it useful from an educational perspective. The RDF has determined that deleting the chapter altogether is not a good strategy due to the fact that so many educators have been using it as a teaching tool. However, because of the reasons listed above, the RTF would like it to have a less prominent role in the overall specification. Please move this chapter to an informative Annex in the document. Resolution: Move Chapter 16, “Mapping UML to OWL”, to an informative annex. This should follow Annex C, “Description Logic Metamodel” and precede Annex E, “Mappings – Informative, Not Normative”, in terms of its ordering in the document.
