 Hi,
I'm new to Protege and ontologies, and I'm getting the following issue with the POMR ontology from Chimezie.

You may want to address the protege-owl mailing list with this problem.

Also note that Protege is not the only ontology editor in the world. For example TopBraid Composer [1] can open this file without problems. While this is a commercial tool, you can exploit a free 30 days evaluation period.

yes Holger, (and if he wanted a free, open source editor that could handle it I would recommend SWOOP [1])

However, I think the bigger issue here is that there were (and I believe still are) some weirdnesses in the machine readability of the FOAF namespace ( http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1 ) and that a number of systems have problems with it (I notice if I try to load it directly into SWOOP I still get XML parsing errors). Lots of systems have done various work arounds for this -- so when you report your error to the Protege mailing list, you might also send it to the FOAF one, we've been complaining about this for a couple years now, maybe if some other folks yell as well we can get it so that the most used Semantic Web vocabulary will actually conform to the standards it promotes :-)

 I have protege version 3.2.1 build 365 and JDK 1.5.0
If I run this ontology through a verifier, it verifies the ontology seemingly without a problem. If i try to load the ontology directly from http://metacognition.info/ontologies/problem-oriented-medical-record.owl I get some very interesting error: WARNING: [ProtegeOWLParser] Warning: Trying to add import for external resource: http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/ -- DefaultProtegeOWLParserLogger.logWarning() INFO: [ProtegeOWLParser] Importing http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/ (from Redire ct to http://protege.stanford.edu/plugins/owl/dc/protege-dc.owl <http://protege.stanford.edu/plugins/owl/dc/protege-dc.owl>) The resource p1:chime has the rdf:type http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Person which is not a class but a edu.stanford.smi.protegex.owl.model.impl.DefaultRDFUntypedRes
 ource
Suggestion: In many cases the problem is a missing owl:imports statement to the classes file which defines the correct type of http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Person

It seems to me that it cannot distinguish the foaf Person class, with or without the foaf imports statement. If someone could please assist here, it would be of great help. Thank you in advance,
 Noah
