Achim: Only the classes which are mentioned in the views should be included, plus all data types and classes which are referenced by properties. But ONLY these. In the OWL environment maybe also include the super classes, the abstract classes.
What the top level classes are for each view. Should include this with the XML examples and documentation on the views.
View description (LION) editing
