Subject: [Go] Ontology development - February highlights

Dear GO,

The most recent monthly report on ontology content, for February 2008, is
now available at:

   http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php?title=Feb2008_report

Ontology development highlights from Febuary:

   * David and Tanya have continued to clean up errors reported by Chris' QC
script. The 'regulates' relationship itself is still on target for March 25th
(http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/Regulation_Main_Page).

   * Work on sporulation will finish the revamp of 'sensu' terms
(http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/Sporulation_Meeting_Notes).

   * Reorganization of electron transport terms continues. The working group
will note where links between function and process terms can be made
(http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/Electron_transport).

   * Disjoint violations in the process ontology have been corrected.

In March, Jen will tackle the area of signal transduction, to identify
both expert biologists and specific areas in GO that can be addressed.

We will also continue work on links between function and process
ontologies, which has begun with two pilot projects (one looking at one or
a few biochemical pathways that are well curated in Reactome, and the
other accompanying the electron transport work). We also still intend to
turn attention to cross-products with the Cell ontology after the
regulation work is secure.

As usual, details of small- and medium-scale changes are available in the
SourceForge Curator Requests tracker. Please contact us if you want to help out
with ontology work in a particular area, or if you have any comments or
questions about what's going on.

Midori & David
on behalf of GO's ontology developers
