Horribly bureaucratic process. No way this will be able to get any
following among application developers.
The only criteria for submitting an ontology to a central repository
should be some claim on the namespace.
Our company owns "com.artifact-software" and I should be able to submit
any ontology that I want as long as I supply the minimal metadata to
permit the OOR to index it.
If people like the license that I give and can merge the ontology with
the rest of their set, then they will use it.
Adding a bunch of gatekeepers is only going to make the marketplace go
elsewhere.
