In fact, a common pattern I'm seing and I'm using is to use puning and have a class hierarchy, each class having an instance with the same URI, so one can refer to each class as a class or as an instance, depending on the context.<br>
</span></blockquote></div><div><br></div></div>The punning feature in OWL2 is very nice indeed. But one should not forget that depending on the use the subject (or object) is either the class *or* the instance. I.e., there is a "class view" of the resource identified by the URI, and an instance view. This is different from referring to a class as an instance. So things you say about the URI using object properties you say about the instance identified by that URI, just as you would if you used a generated instance URI, and the rules that apply to that are no different from the rules that apply if you said those things about an instance with a randomly generated URI. For example, if you say conflicting things about it, you still say these about one and the same instance, not "some", possibly different, instances.<div class="im">
