Follow-up: contacts for UniProt annotations

As already mentioned, we should email the GOA helpdesk at goa@ebi.ac.uk for annotations assigned specifically by EBI UniProt (GOA) curators. Where annotations by SIB UniProt curators are or may be involved, please email help@uniprot.org. They distribute updates to all UniProt curators (GOA + SIB). I added this info to the Google spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nAquF0oXHU6d638Q97ZeQ7K7DOhuru84-rOMEL4A114/edit#gid=0), but we opted not to include email contacts on the corresponding GitHub page (https://github.com/geneontology/go-ontology/blob/master/curator_group_contacts.tsv).

Also, [one for David OS?] Chris reminds us to coordinate with Seth on any metadata related to people, see https://github.com/geneontology/go-site/issues/231.

 File in GitHub does not include email addresses. 
 
 *ACTION*: GOA office will have a think about creating a @goa user for GH and get approval from GOA supervisors. 
 
 *ACTION*: For UniProt - let’s ask Sylvain about the possibility of creating a @uniprot ID on GH that can follow up as contact information. 
 
 Reminder to coordinate with Seth wrt updating people / users. We can use yaml file to find IDs.
