Hello List,

I have completed a couple of ontology's which I now wish to use within my web 
app. I recently changed the Ontology URI (as I have just hosted it on the web) 
but notice that this does not affect individual entity URIs. An example would be

new Ontology URI = 
http://content.screencast.com/users/WOMBRA/folders/Default/media/aaa65222-c463-46e5-baf5-61068b974b0b/section6energydomestic2010.owl

however every entity URI still exists inside the OWL file as follows

http://www.oldOntologyUri#entity<http://www.oldontologyuri/#entity>

The easy answer would be to manually update every entity URI and replace it 
with the new absolute URI, however the problem I have is that I do not know the 
absolute URI until I upload the edited document E.g. absolute route to the URI 
is unknown to me prior to it being uploaded. My thinking is that I will need to 
begin storing my ontology's in a server such as Joseki and that by doing this 
the URI for any ontology may remain the same even after it has been edited.

Can anyone confirm if this the case?

Thanks

Lewis
