Re: BioRDF Telcon

Hi Lena et al,

When you said data structure, did you mean the RDF structure. If so, is 
a pointer to the structure that we can look at?

As discussed during yesterday's call, Jun and Satya will help create a 
wiki page for listing some of the requirements for provenance/workflow 
in the context of gene lists, perhaps we should also use it to help 
coordinate some of the future activities (people also brought up Taverna 
during the call yesterday). Please coordinate with Satya and Jun.

Cheers,

-Kei
