[MOBY-dev] Registration situation

[Haase, Dirk]

Hi Mark,

thanks for clarification. And sorry for spreading lies about the
behaviour of gbrowse_moby at iCAPTURE! It definetely does consider
services without RDF description, I just confused things...

Regards,
dirk

Hi Andreas and Dirk,

The current situation is that the RDF agent has replaced the ability to  
deregister "stable" services via the API, for security purposes; however  
the registration of services (both "test" and "stable"), and the  
deregistration of "test" services is still possible via the API.

I don't think that the gbrowse moby instance at iCAPTURE ignores services  
without an RDF description (that certainly wasn't my intent!), but it does  
ignore services that have been determined (by a moby-ping) to be  
inaccessible.  Eddie has a cron that pings every service regularly (every  
couple of hours?).

If gbrowse is filtering "test" services please let me know because that  
wasn't my intention...
