Re: Bioschema specifications repo

Hi Alasdair,

The only reason I suggest a single monolithic repo is so that our
Bioschemers (yes, I'll keep using it until it sticks ;) are able to see all
the specifications and connect attributes within their specs with other
related specs being developed by others. The potential for reinventing the
wheel (an attribute) is high esp. within our life sciences domain :)

It would also give a developer a single shot view all specifications for
generating the website, generating json-ld specs, conformance testing (as
Dominique suggested).

You could still have separate repos, but I would suggest adding them as
submodules or subtrees to a centralised repo.

Best wishes
