Dear Colleagues, (01)
It would be helpful to provide identify the requirements for an Ontology
Repository.
Again a requirements wiki page is needed to keep track of our
requirements gathering efforts. (02)
Here is an initial list from a quick brain dump (note: Repo = Repository): (03)
* Allows authors to create ontology content and store it in a
"local" repo
* Allow communities to manage a shared "community" repo
* Provide a "root" repo that keeps tracks of community repos and
provides the most universal ontology content and metadata
* Supports a [maven] like distributed model where content from
"local" repo may be "deployed" to the "community" repo or the
"root" repo
* Allows standard and extensible metadata to be associated with
Ontology elements
* Supports flexible search mechanism where domain and community
specific parameterized queries may be defined for metadata based
searches
* Supports flexible subscription and notification feature to keep
interested parties notified of changes to artifacts
* Supports automatic cataloging of published artifacts
* Supports automatic rule-based validation of submitted artifacts
* Maintains change history for all artifacts in repo
* Supports a set of minimal authentication mechanisms (e.g. Basic,
HTTPS mutual, OpenId)
* Provide fine grained role-based access control and authorization
over all actions
* Support seamless search over multiple repos (local + community,
local + community + root, other...) (04)
