Need SOP for adding new imported terms

[hdrabkin]

The file
http://www.geneontology.org/quality_control/annotation_checks/taxon_checks/taxon_union_terms.obo

We need a new union that isn't in the above file;
Bacteria or Archaea
We also note that several of items in the above file are not imported into protege.

NCBITAXON_Union:0000004?

[hdrabkin]

That one will do. But we still need SOP for the ones that aren't available.

[ukemi]

Yes. this is a more general issue of how to request new imports.

I gave a quick demo of how to do this on the last call when you were away, the goal would be to get others able to do this.

But there are extra steps with the NCBITaxon union. We run a DL-reasoner (UnionOf is outside EL) to materialize a subClassOf hierarchy (so for example, HumanOrYeast SubClassOf Opisthokonte).

OK. We need to get this into the ontology developers' SOP documentation.

I have added a section to the ontology editors' documentation about adding import requests to the respective .txt files.
