Annotation Extension Relations

• Outstanding ticket needs to be resolved:
  • 'exists_during' is in GOREL, but still needs to be replaced with an RO relation
  • https://github.com/geneontology/go-annotation/issues/2677
  • There are a number of relations in RO that are meant to capture the spectrum of relations between a physical entity and a process or stage
  • Initially we thought that 'existence overlaps' might be a global replacement for 'exists during', but maybe curators really need to review how they used this relation and pick the best match from the list of possible relations in RO
  • One other possibility: 'existence starts and ends during'
