There are a number of other resources in the OOR data model that are not
language dependent, such as UsageLog, Event, User, etc. See (01)
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/kenb/oor/oorData.xmi or
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/kenb/oor/oorData.gif (02)
Most of these seem to be in OMV or in OMV extensions. So I suggest that
OMV is a good starting point. (03)
While OMV is written in OWL, it does not seem to be highly class oriented,
and I think it could accommodate other kinds of ontologies. For example,
OMV has properties "numberOfClasses" and "numberOfProperties" which are
RDF/OWL oriented, but it also has "numberOfAxioms". (04)
