Hi Melanie, Thanks for mentioning OBI and its alignment with MGED. It's also good to hear that OBI incorporates domain ontologies like NIFSTD. Based on some reading, MIREOT seems to address some of issues with OWL import (e.g., it allows a partial import of an ontology). As we move our use case forward, we will keep abreast of all these and other developments and see how they fit our needs.
