My only reason was that the parser originally failed to load the OBO 
format data - probably for the same reason that the flatfile failed - 
and I tried the flatfile to check if there were parser issues with the 
format.  I just carried on with the flatfile after that because the 
terms with formatting errors were (subjectively, for me) easier to 
spot and fix by hand.  I'm happy to use a fixed OBO file.

I submitted it via the website interface - I'm afraid I have no idea
where it would have gone after that.
