From groscurt at mpiz-koeln.mpg.de Tue Jan 6 04:31:12 2009 From: groscurt at mpiz-koeln.mpg.de (Andreas Groscurth) Date: Tue, 06 Jan 2009 10:31:12 +0100 Subject: [MOBY-l] Cleaning the registry Message-ID: <496324E0.9010509@mpiz-koeln.mpg.de> Hi all, I wrote a short script which basically fetches all namespaces and all datatypes registered at the Moby central in Canada. Both are then compared to all datatypes and namespaces of all registered services used for the input and the output definition. Assuming the retrieval methods in jmoby work correctly and my script does it also we have the following numbers: Registered Data Types: 721 Unused Data Types: 388 Registered Namespaces: 459 Unused Namespaces: 232 This means 53% of all registered datatypes are not used - and 50% of all Namespaces !!! How do you think about cleaning the registry once in a while and erase unsused datatypes and namespaces ? Of course they might be useable for a service provider someday, but for the sake of clarity I would suggest to do that. Cleaning both would reduce the number of entries by more than the half, which would result in smaller, more compact, better understandable and better browsable ontologies. What do you think ?

Actually, I don't. Or: I agree only partially. The data types can be part of a domain model (as they are for the GCP project) - even without existing services, the model is still useful (and, for example, with Moses generated data types can be at once used in various Java programs). I may agree with namespaces - but because I am still not sure (and never been) what exactly namespaces in BioMoby mean, I cannot be even here sure :-) Martin -- Martin Senger email: martin.senger at gmail.com,m.senger at cgiar.org skype: martinsenger From jeedward at yahoo.com Fri Jan 16 16:45:21 2009 From: jeedward at yahoo.com (John Edward) Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2009 13:45:21 -0800 (PST) Subject: [MOBY-l] BCBGC-09 final call for papers Message-ID: <934543.40724.qm@web45905.mail.sp1.yahoo.com> BCBGC-09 final call for papers ?
