<Susie> Tim: Will use Drupal

<Susie> Tim: same for cell lines

<Susie> Tim: Couldn't you search across a common store, if both about an antibody

<Susie> Tim: Want to know if anything posted across web about certain entities

<Susie> Tim: Will send some use cases

<Susie> Alex to post on the wiki

<Susie> 2. MyExperiment & Lilly Experiment

<Susie> Maurice has asked to hand ontology work to Yimin Wang

<Susie> Yimin has relevant background in ontology integration

<Susie> Discovered Yimin is interested in working on the project

<Susie> Schedule call with Tim and David to put the business justification

<Susie> Susie to consider use cases

<Susie> Tim: Also an interesting use case

<Susie> Tim: Will prepare talk for C-SHALS

<Susie> Tim: Will credit everyone for their hard work

<Susie> David: voiD and EXPO may also be useful

<alepas> http://rdfs.org/ns/void

<Susie> Tim: Aware of EXPO, but not voiD

<Susie> David: voiD is about linking data sets

<david_newman> http://rdf.myexperiment.org/generic/spec

<Susie> Matthias: It's also being explored in BioRDF

<Susie> Marco: Jun Zhao is the person working on voiD
