1 hour call

DISCUSSION ITEM I: Follow up on chemical xps

See previous discussion here: http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/Ontology_meeting_2012-04-11

This was followed up by an email thread on the go-editors list. Could we please discuss Jane's questions on the latest message in the thread:

"I think we should definitely do that [i.e. in response to Chris' suggestion "just switch TG to point to UCHEBI and request further changes in CHEBI directly"]. So then new chemicals would only need to go into CHEBI, and we would add xps by hand to x-chemical-edit.obo?

And then we wait to see if Heiko can figure a way to write the xps from TG1.

The downside, I guess, is that we can't leverage the CHEBI structure to place new terms by using TG0 and cut/pasting?"

We keep having frequent requests for chemical terms in SF, so it would be helpful to know how to proceed as effectively as possible. Thanks!

DISCUSSION ITEM II: EC numbers in GO

We need a pipeline!

DISCUSSION ITEM III: Follow up on "Moving biological_process_xp_cellular_component into live GO"

See previous discussion here: http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php?title=Ontology_meeting_2012-03-07

DISCUSSION ITEM IV (related): Are we going to retrofit logical definitions for cell-type-specific cellular component terms?

Some of these (e.g. neuron projection) are in the scratch directory as cellular_component_xp_cell.obo.
