[MOBY-l] Publication opportunity for Mobyers, especially TIGR workshop participants

[Damian Gessler]

Always happy to see envelopes being pushed, though it does appear from the  
solicitation itself that the editors mean the "Semantic Web" notion of  
semantics:

"The goal of this special issue of the Journal of Biomedical Informatics  
(JBI) is to provide a forum for advanced research on methods for  
biomedical data mashup using Semantic Web technologies, as the quantity  
and diversity of biomedical datasets are growing rapidly on the Web. In  
accordance with the editorial policies of the Journal, we are soliciting  
full-length article submissions that explain and demonstrate the use of  
novel Semantic Web methodologies to integrate heterogeneous biomedical  
data ..."

See also of course Wikipedia for commonly accepted implications of  
"semantics" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic#Computer_science.

I've got a paper almost ready, but I was thinking about BMC Bioinformatics  
as its home... .
