I am the lead ontologist for QUDT and the NASA QUDT Handbook being produced (using SWP and LaTeX generators) from release 2 of QUDT. This release is substantially larger, having all of ISO 80000 domains.

Currently we are in an editorial review of the handbook at NASA HQ. After that there will be a technical review within NASA.

In the next 2 to 3 weeks we will be releasing a subset of release 2 for beta testing.

A presentation on QUDT was recently made at PDE2013 - see http://www.scribd.com/doc/144117099/The-NASA-QUDT-Quantities-Units-Dimensions-and-Data-Types-Handbook-and-Ontologies-–-A-Model-Based-Foundation-for-Quantitative-Data-Alignment-and-E

I note your question on OWL-DL compliance. This is hard to do when SKOS is in the mix. Why do you need OWL-DL compliance? What kind of inferencing do you have the need for? If its simply for integrity checks on the models, we have ways of doing that using SPIN.

Also, for OWL DL compliance just download a copy of QUDT and delete the triples that you don't want the OWL DL reasoners to see. Something like

DELETE WHERE {
    ?a skos:exactMatch ?b .
}

    Since QUDT has been put on the table, I'd like to ask if anyone
    has any insight about its future maintenance and governance? I
    tried to contact the NASA editors, but did not receive a reply.
    Since TopQuadrant were the other part of the development team,
    perhaps someone listening to this list has some information?

    There are some issues with QUDT that make it hard to integrate
    into bigger projects.
    For example, the current version uses skos:exactMatch properties
    to relate many QUDT classes to DBpedia resources.
    Under SKOS semantics both domain and range of the semantic
    relations (including exactMatch) is skos:Concept.
    So the QUDT resources are both Class and Individual, which is not
    OWL-DL compliant. These properties could be replaced with
    rdfs:seeAlso to remove the problem.

    Any news?
