[Ontology-editors] use of regulates

[Jane Lomax]

Hi Chris, David and Tanya - I'm in the midst of creating a load of new 
terms for PAMGO, and I'm trying to get the regulates relationships 
correct as I go to save pain in the future. It works so differently from 
the other all-some relations we use I'm having a hard time getting my 
head around it.

For example, in a situation where you have a term 'regulation of process 
X' but there's no process X in GO, but process X is_a process Y, is it 
okay to say that 'regulation of process X' regulates process Y? Or do we 
have to create a process X?
