[Biodevelopers] XML Standardization?

[Joe Landman]

Hi Alex:

  There are Ontologies projects which are trying to keep naming
consistent across organisms.  The information needed in each
sub-discipline is subtly different.  There are overall efforts within
specific groups such as MicroArrays (MGED) and others.  However the
vocabularies to help define the data structures properly needs to follow
from a common set of agreed upon terms (hence the ontologies issues).
