SUO: W3C ontology requirements
A "W3C working draft"
(http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Process-20010719/tr.html#RecsWD)
about web ontology requirements is at
http://km.aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de/owl/
The use-cases in particular are an excellent approach to developing requirements. Its a sign of a healthy project that these use-cases are becoming more refined over time, co-evolving with the owl specification. One thing about the IEEE suo-wg that tells me its dead is the lack of activity to refine the purpose document
http://suo.ieee.org/scopeAndPurpose.html
which is simply cut-and-paste from one year to the next eg in the draft formal doc posted by Teknowledge (where applications were listed as a blank, TBD).
Forget the formal wording! Get out there and test and prove your proposal works before you watse further IEEE staff time on it.
