Subject: Re: [legalruleml] [members] Palmirani and Durusau named OASIS Distinguished Contributors
Hi Tara,
Thanks for the note and for the presentation at RuleML. And for the movie recommendation….
Some off-the-cuff (and defeasible) responses to your notes….
As I understand it, LegalRuleML has no conception of 'individual legal systems' per se. Rather, all of the contextualisation components should be able to handle that. In addition, I understood the intention to be that laws no matter where would be expressed
in the 'language' of LegalRuleML. Interoperability is intended to be 'guaranteed' by having any law written in the same ML. However, it remains to be seen just how LegalRuleML is used and whether issues arise that require adaptation.
STIT = "Sees to it that" is an early form of deontic logic, usually a generic _expression_ over actions and focusing on the result (meaning it does not specify what the action is that brings the result). This language has always had an agent as in "Bill
sees to it that the pizza is delivered to Jill". Doesn't LegalRuleML also tie an agent to an action and as the bearer of the modal role - Bill must pay the penalty to Jill - has Bill as the agent of paying the penalty and as the one who is obligated.
Don't I understand the issue here.
I'd have to understand the criticisms of XML.
LegalRuleML is not intended to have its own legal ontology, and we were deliberately neutral on this point. Yet, one wonders how long that position can be sustained.
Sounds like a point worth expanding on.
Chuckle.
Cheers,
Adam
