new use case for SPE ontology: PlosOne's Topaz publishing platform

Exciting update for scientific publishing task: I met with Amit Kapoor who
heads the Topaz project under Plos. They are building a new publishing
platform for PlosOne, http://www.plosone.org/, a new open access journal
from Plos. Amit is interested in using ontology and semantic web technology
to add new features to Topaz software, which is also open source.  We
discussed the possibility of using SPE ontology and collaboration.  It looks
very promising! Topas publishing platform has an architecture that can
implement community-supported ontology like SPE for scientific publishing.
I think this is a very concrete use case.  I welcome any suggestion as how
to pursue this use case so that we can really develop SPE ontology to
something with practical use right away.

www.web2express.org/demo/ demonstrates another use case. You may take a look
at it if you haven't done so.  I'll appreciate any comment.
