Hi Jim, we are aware of your work, of course; one of the action from the last HCLS-SD call (on the isa to rdf conversion topic for the stem cell data scenario) was to communicate with you, also as Scott suggested. We do not use the limpopo, as isa tools already had their own set of parser, validator and converter (standalone) components. We will come back to you on this soon - maybe starting a new thread to link the two subgroups's specific activities.
