Dear Bioschemas.org<http://bioschemas.org/> community,

Good news: the National Museum of Natural History of Paris has annotated 180.000+ species webpages with the Taxon 0.3-RC<https://bioschemas.org/types/Taxon/> type that we are pushing for publication in schema.org<http://schema.org/>. You may check an example here: https://inpn.mnhn.fr/espece/cd_nom/60878/ (look for the string: "@type": "Taxon”).

This is great news. I have sent you a PR to have this listed on the Bioschemas website.

The annotations follow the Taxon profile 0.4-DRAFT<https://bioschemas.org/specifications/drafts/Taxon/> that should eventually become the current profile as this is THE one that is in line with Taxon type 0.3-RC (the current profile 0.3 is NOT in line with the type 0.3-RC. Yes.... kind of confusing). @Alasdair: any news on changing the version of the current profile?

The leadership team will be having a meeting on 12 November. I’ve put it on the agenda for approval.

Note that this is only a first step. In a second round, we wish to push for a TaxonName<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cQPR7KGU0fOHXiRoaJpahEgrX9i6SIc36X8cupfg6_4/edit?usp=drive_web&ouid=114871180013004076623> type that will allow for more flexible annotation while making it possible for name-centric portals to annotate their pages without mixing taxa and names.

Keep up the great work.

Best regards

Alasdair

Regards,
   Franck.
