Practical experience with ØWL\ has been quite positive in general; however, it has also revealed room for improvement in several areas. We systematically analyze the identified shortcomings of OWL, such as expressivity issues, problems with its syntaxes, and deficiencies in the definition of ØWL\ species. Furthermore, we present an overview of ØWL\ 2—an extension to and revision of ØWL\ that is currently being developed within the \W3C\ ØWL\ Working Group. Many aspects of ØWL\ have been thoroughly reengineered in ØWL\ 2, thus producing a robust platform for future development of the language.
