Ah, that makes sense.  So, if I understand this right, a general tool  
would be something where you give a program the ontology, a gene  
association file, and a list of genes, and get the appropriate  
display.  This has to be filtered for statistically enriched  
associations to be useful, I think.  I'm interested to see what others  
suggest.  I think that various projects have their own organism- 
specific versions of this, and I think it's built into commercial  
packages like GeneSpring.  But I'd like to see a list and discussion  
of what's available as open source... especially for things that can  
be displayed as web tools.
