Once the RDF mapping has stabilized, we have to move ontology prefix from:
@prefix wikibase: <http://wikiba.se/ontology-beta#> .
to
@prefix wikibase: <http://wikiba.se/ontology#> .
This is the task to track the change and assign bugs that block it to it.

Move ontology to http://wikiba.se/ontology# from beta
Ping @Lydia_Pintscher, @daniel - at what point do we want to declare it's not beta anymore?
@Addshore What do you say? From my side we should move but I'm not sure what all will break and whom we need to notify.
I don't have objections. Any clients that have ontology uris hard-coded will break, there is no way to avoid this.
We could provide same-as triples that map the old to the new uris. That would be nice, and in *theory* that means we stay backwards compatible. But very few RDF consumers do oven the most basic types of inference, so I don't think it will hep much in practice.
Still, it would be good to have that for completeness.
Well, for classes and properties, one would use owl:equivalentClass and owl:equivalentProperty rather than sameAs to encode this point. But I agree that this will hardly be considered by any consumer.

I guess we should announce this on the list in advance.

Our OWL file actually has this:
!DOCTYPE rdf:RDF [ <!ENTITY xsd "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#"> <!ENTITY rdf "http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"> <!ENTITY rdfs "http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#"> <!ENTITY owl "http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#"> <!ENTITY wikibase "http://wikiba.se/ontology#"> ]>
Even though our RDF is generated with:
@prefix wikibase: <http://wikiba.se/ontology-beta#>.
So if somebody is using our OWL definitions, they already should have some means to reconcile this.

[mediawiki/extensions/WikibaseLexeme@master] Update RDF for new ontology without beta
I've made the announcement, I think we can wait for a week or so to give people chance to raise objections (there shouldn't be any, but just in case) and then we can merge it.
So is this task no longer blocked on resolving T99907: [RFC] Human-readable serialization of TimeValue precisions in RDF?
@Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE given that we haven't had much progress with T99907 since 3 years ago, and any change there would be incremental, I don't think we should block on it. If we make a sprint on it and have the resolution soon (like, before 2019) I definitely can hold the 1.0 point, but otherwise I don't see a reason to wait for years for it.
Excluding the above, I think we're now ready to move with this. Patches needed here:
(in this order). Once it's merged, I'll make another announcement on the lists.
I posted a new suggestion on T99907 a few days ago, but that suggestion is also backwards compatible, so if we go with that we don’t need to worry about the ontology version anyways.
WikibaseLexeme patches +2ed, I’ll leave the Wikibase patch to more knowledgeable folks.
