[Pellet-users] Pellet validator and datatype properties

That's good news! I am using the demo version of the Pellet validator online
at

http://www.mindswap.org/2003/pellet/demo.shtml

Every time I create an ontology, I run it through the online Pellet
validator and also the WonderWeb validator at

http://phoebus.cs.man.ac.uk:9999/OWL/Validator

The WonderWeb validator only tells me if the ontology is in OWL Lite or OWL
DL. The Pellet validator also tells me of unsatisfiable concepts and also
displays a class hierarchy, along with suggestions about how to make an OWL
Full ontology into an OWL DL ontology :).  When I write code around
ontologies, I do use Pellet V. 1.4 and Jena V. 2.5.2. Maybe the Pellet
version on the URL is obsolete and needs to be updated....In any case,
thanks for the help!
