Trying to help Paola to get her OBO-Edit behaving like Becky's. Problems with her dictionary. None of her problems appear to be OBO-Edit bugs.
- Paola got it working. She wrote, "The problem seemed to be with the way the dict files were transmitted/copied over. Emailing, zipping or loading/downloading from web repository did not work, but simply copying the files on a memory stick did the trick."
Someone asked whether there's a way to see the most recently modified items in the SourceForge bug tracker. There isn't a way to sort by Last Modified, but this query will show you tracker items (bug or feature) that were modified in 2011 and that are still open.
Ramona would like to be able to move undocked windows behind other windows instead of being in front of everything. (The user guide window can do this.)
- Unfortunately, this will not be easy to fix, because the undocked window stuff is handled by a third-party package (infonode.docking) and it appears that undocked--aka floating--windows are DEFINED as floating in front of the other components. The user guide window is different because it is created as a new window by a different method (and it can't be docked--it's not a dockable component).

explanation component not working
- The Explanations component and Graph Editor weren't showing explanations for some newer explanation types (just the question, "Why is this link in the ontology?"). Now they show raw explanations for any explanation types that don't have a pretty form defined. This fix was deemed good enough.
Marcus: when you use the magnifying glass in the user guide, you get duplicate items, and one of the duplicates is empty and the other has the info.
- Nomi remembers having fixed this before (others agreed). Amina disabled my fix last year for some reason. I have re-fixed it.
Chris added a new reasoner.

Is_a closure broken
- I believe this is fixed. Waiting for Terry to test it.
parent/child search/filtered save problems 2.1beta10, 11
Loading multiple ontologies--PATO, GO, cell etc, Marcus gets message "ID profile mismatch--use profile loaded from the file"? Which ontology file is it referring to? It should say which. (Marcus will post this as a bug.)

Bad handling of unrecognized relation (text editor et al.)
- I looked into this some--will not be simple to fix. Has to do with how dangling objects (e.g., unrecognized relations) are handled in different components.
scroll lock (aka lock view) for global OTE - If I click on terms in the locked OTE, it doesn't show them in the Text Editor or other components, and it should, right?
