aTag and conclusion sections from PubMed

A few years ago Matthias and others did some interesting work on aTags 
<http://www.jbiomedsem.com/content/1/S1/S5#B28> and an initial 
extraction of conclusions from PubMed abstracts still queryable in the 
HCLS knowledge base. Does anyone know what the status of the atag 
approach is? Did it gain traction in the SW community or is has work 
progressed in some way?

Also, I would be interested to expand the conclusions section demo, any 
way that could be accomplished?

I see that most of the related links seem to be dead on the HCLS site: 
<http://www.w3.org/wiki/HCLSIG_BioRDF_Subgroup/aTags/datasets>. The 
science commons still provides a text annotation service that embeds 
atags <http://whatizit.neurocommons.org/>.

Since I didn't start working with this group until 2010 I am still 
discovering work done by members of the group several years ago!
