.owl files

[Derek S]

Hi,

the molecular biology world has number published ontologies in RDF/XML which have the file extension .owl 

I know if I change the extension to .rdf then TBC can import and open them. Could someone remind me of the logic for why TBC can't open these files when they have a .owl extension?

Cheers

The reason is that many .owl file "out there" (esp saved with Protege) are in fact OWL/XML, not RDF/XML. In order to avoid confusion, we elected to leave .owl to OWL/XML.
