Re: Dissemination of Bioschemas specifications

Hi Tony,

It is great having someone from the samples side! Welcome on board!

Please feel free to add any comments or suggestions. Please bear in mind 
that we will not actively work on the specification right now but in 
September during the hackathon. So you will not see much changes now but 
more like discussion and so. I will of course keep an eye on the 
document so will take a look to your comments and suggestions and will 
require additional information if needed. We can also meet at EBI any 
time and have a look together.

We want to end up with a lightweight specification with just a bunch of 
properties, that can fit as many biological entities as we can think of. 
If samples require something more specific, we can always move it to its 
own type, ideally extending from Biological Entity.

Regards,
