Goal of this meeting: Extend the scope of this call to become more of a general ontology support meeting (e.g., help with using OORT, TermGenie, phenotype ontologies, etc.)
Some open questions:
- Do we need a new name?
- Where to announce the meetings (currently its the OBO-Edit working group mailing list)?
- Who is the targeted audience?
Bug and Feature Trackers
- OWLTools and OORT bug tracker
- OBO format reference implementation bug tracker
- TermGenie bug tracker
- OBO-Edit Bug tracker
- OBO-Edit Feature tracker
OBO-Edit
Fixed or newly added since last meeting
- Beta-Release: 2.3-beta 1.
The main improvement is the option to add more dictionaries for the spell-checking. This will allow enable users to share dictionaries (e.g., in an SVN) without the need to copy and overwrite them manually in the OBO-Edit configuration folder.
Currently working on
- Testing of the new dictionary feature (Paola)
- Integrate the latest bug-fixes of the obo2owl and owl2obo conversion into OBO-Edit (ongoing)
Recent Bug Reports
- Reporting of errors in imported ontologies is insufficient
- Problems on KUbuntu and Java 7
OBO Format
- OBO writer: Fixed a bug for the property value writing
- SPEC: Updated spec, TODO move or copy the recommended tag order for serilazation from OBO format guide 1.4 to specification
- OWL2OBO: new CLI option to write untranslated axioms into a file
OWLTools
- OORT: per Davids request there is a new ontology file, which contains the same as the main ontology (MIREOT + asserted inferences), but removed the equivalence axioms. Current (intermediate?) name: 'relaxed'
- ELK 0.3.0 support: Due to a bug in the current 0.3.0 release this is delayed. bug report Yevgeny already has fixed the bug and its available in the nightly builds. Currently testing.
