November 4th 2009

Plan for changes to be made. Preferably able to be completed and made live before March 1st 2009.

Participants: Sandra Orchard, Alex Diehl, Peter D'Eustachio, Jennifer Deegan.

Discussion

We discussed how best to do some really concrete work that can be committed before next March, that will pave the way for future work, but without requiring super-human effort to finish in time.

We all agreed that we have been circling round the same problems with the top terms for some time now. Peter suggested that we should each take a pathway that we are very familiar with and try to put the terms in around the new structure that we have created. Everybody agrees that this is a good idea. It will test the structure we have already, and if we can get some pathways right then they will serve as good examples to be followed in future editing by others.

Everybody is able to to use OBO-Edit at least for browsing the file. Jennifer will send the link to the file and people can either edit the file directly in OBO-Edit or put their new structure up on this wiki page.

Jennifer will also make a doodle poll to set up a meeting for three weeks from now, to discuss what we have done.

Instructions

File

http://cvsweb.geneontology.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/go/scratch/signaling3.obo

CVS version number

If you are going to edit the file in OBO-Edit, please could you note down the cvs version number of the file that you started with, as this will be required for merging the changes in again.

OBO-Edit

This is the place to go to get OBO-Edit: https://sourceforge.net/projects/geneontology/files/

Number range

If you would like to make new terms you will need to set up a new number range. It will be best to number terms from 1-999 and have a prefix corresponding to your initials, so for example my first term would be JID:0000001.

To set a number range you go to the menu 'Metadata' then choose 'ID Manager' and then you click the little cog icon and put this in the box: GO:$sequence(7,0000001,0000999)$
You only need to change 'GO' to your initials'
