Dear HCLS interest group members, The NCBO BioPortal Prototype is now available to the community for testing and feedback (http://alpha.bioontology.org). This prototype is still in its alpha stages so there will be errors, but any data you put in will be preserved (based on a daily backup schedule). Please feel free to test all the features of the application and give feedback. Because this is a prototype, not all of the ontology content will be available or will be completely accurate. When an exception occurs in the application, an email will be automatically sent so there is no need to email about exceptions. Note that when you register in the prototype, please use your email as the username. In that way, our engineers will be able track the issues you may encounter. Please send all other feedback/issues to ngriff@stanford.edu. Where possible, be specific when specifying the feedback (what page, where, how, suggestion for improvement, etc.). We appreciate all your input and participation in the BioPortal Prototype Testing. Currently Known Issues 1) If an ontology does not work in the original bioportal, it will not work in the prototype. 2) Searching over all ontologies does not work. 3) Searching over attributes or using sounds like does not work. 4) When jumping into the middle of an ontology through a search, It can take a little bit of time to load 5) When jumping to certain concepts, the tree will not be drawn due to cycles in the hierarchy If you have any questions or need more information about the prototype, please feel free to email Nick Griffith at ngriff@stanford.edu.
