      There has been discussion around using XML Schema and/or RDF/OWL. We need to look in to the merits of both and come to a conclusion about XML Schema and/or RDF/OWL. If we were to switch to RDF/OWL, this would cause the contributed specification documents to change significantly. So, we need to give this careful consideration.

      Per discussion during the March 27, 2012 meeting this issue should be closed as we do not believe that there is a need to redefine the models in RDF/OWL. We also believe that issue SRAMP-25 is still keeping the descibing of user defined models out of scope for the specification. The specification allows the addition of user defined models, but does not specify how the addition of user defined models should be done and is therefore out of scope of the specification.

      Issue-003 from the contributed issues document

      Should we create an RDF/OWL based meta model view. This would provide a better way to leverage
      semantics to create new types of artifacts, etc., allow clients lacking full S-RAMP knowledge to get more
      value out of these documents. It would also provide an alternative description of the spec using RDF/OWL.

      This would change the specification significantly. Needs careful consideration, but does increase ease of
      extensibility.
