[MOBY-l] [moby] Question about Object Ontology

[Sean Zhou]

Dear Mark and Eddie,

Thank you very much for the help. It worked. Just summarize what I have done
to get it.
1) Downloaded Object Ontology from
http://mobycentral.icapture.ubc.ca/RESOURCES/MOBY-S/Objects
2) Used SmartCVS to get moby-live
3) Built Dashboard following the instruction of 
http://biomoby.open-bio.org/CVS_CONTENT/moby-live/Java/docs/Dashboard.html
4) Note: Building Dashboard did take quite a while as mentioned in the
instruction.

Thanks again for all the help.

Best,

Sean

Eddie is right - you need to remove the trailing "/" on those URL's to
get the ontologies

Sorry about that!

What's happened now is that the conduit has become so big and interesting 
      that communication has become more than a conduit, 
       it has become a destination in its own right..."
