Alasdair, can I clarify what you mean by

"2. Data providers will also be free to provide additional terms with the same meaning.”

I had something different in mind. When validating a markup against a profile you have the choice of being

  *   “closed” – meaning that only terms that are expected are acceptable, or
  *   “open” – meaning that additional terms are acceptable

I was thinking that validation would be done in an open way, i.e. not reporting errors if additional terms are provided.

Does this refer to a profile providing term mappings (as raised by Michel, Philippe and others) contributed by different data providers (profile creation participants)?

With regard to mapping, is this something that Bioschemas should be maintaining or should we be encouraging the use of services like Bioportal and OLS for this purpose?
