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

• Ramona reported that the reasoner seems much slower than it used to (took over a minute to reason over plant_ontology.obo).
  • Nomi tried it and it ran as fast as ever (about 5 seconds for plant_ontology.obo). Not sure why it's going so slowly for Ramona.

Discussion

• Latest official release: 2.2 (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
