ontology file names

In SVN we have go-simple.obo but on our new downloads page we have go-basic.obo. I know these files have the same content so this seems unnecessarily confusing. Can we clarify? FlyBase would also like an announcement that these files exist.

build-up of stale inferred links

When a source ontology changes, we get all the new inferred links from that change, and remove all the redundant links but we are left with the links that can no longer be inferred. Sometimes these are causing problems, I've noticed this especially in the cell cycle. Could we have a periodic clear-out of these? So generate a list of inferred links that can no longer be inferred and decide which ones we want to keep?
