Bug and Feature Trackers

• OE Bug tracker
• OE Feature tracker

Fixed or newly added since last meeting

• Cycle Check doesn't work
  • New cycle check method finds (possibly mixed-relationship) cycles by checking for objects that are descendants of one of their own children.
  • The check works whether or not you have the reasoner on, but it doesn't find cycles that involve implied links found by the reasoner.
  • The new cycle check is set by default to run on save and on manual verification; other times (e.g., on reasoner change) can be added by the user via the Verification Manager configuration panel.
• Name redundancy check not working in Text Editor
  • It was checking for name redundancy when called with no arg (i.e., invoked from Verification Manager; check all terms) but not when called on a specific term (i.e., from Text Editor).

Currently working on

• is_Obsolete not recognized in verification check
• Different warnings from Verification Manager and Text Editor

Discussion

• Released OBO-Edit 2.2 on May 24 (I was going to call it 2.1.1 but decided that was too confusing)
  • Passes the usual unit tests
  • Mike Cherry tested it in the pipeline and said it seemed fine
  • Several OEWG members said that it works for them

• Next bugs/features to focus on?
  • Bugs sorted in descending order by priority
  • Feature requests sorted in descending order by priority
  • Could use re-prioritization
