The entire formal content of the new ISO standard BFO is now available at ISO Standards Maintenance Portal

See the attached readme file to see what this folder contains.

Also attached is a detailed comparison between BFO 2.0 and BFO 2020, signifying all the changes made at the terminological level (labels, definitions, elucidations, examples) in the ISO version.

Note that this comparison file does not contain the new at-all-times and at-some-time versions of the temporally indexed relations introduced in BFO 2020 to yield binary versions of these relations for use in OWL.

A BFO 2020 version of the BFO Specification and Users Guide will be released shortly, incorporating all the content of BFO 2020 and documenting all changes.

The attachments and all of the above-mentioned material can be freely distributed. Publication of the ISO standard itself (ISO/IEC 21838-2) is scheduled for April.

Great success for the academic integrity of knowledge and interdisciplinary leaps ahead of past states.
PS: I am nearly ready to publish BFO-base to Scientific Moral Theory based on this BFO structured Human Experience Ontology. This is postdoctoral work.
Comments are sought. View the chart in the first person as"your life" meaning that Humans universal is other humans, not yourself.

Table 1.  The four universals are row one. Instantiations, row two, are common examples of each universal. Inhered experiences, row three, are the world at birth and represent states of knowledge and teaching explicit and implicit between individuals and culture. Practice knowledge, row four, is how the universals manifest in education. Operational knowledge, row five, is a list of professions that put knowledge to work in each culture. Emerging knowledge, row six, represents discovery and growth in the subjects and is captured in upper-level ontologies.
