Re: Beagle ontology draft

[Lukas Lipka <lukaslipka gmail com>]

Hi,

Yeah, we thought about using Xesam at first. It is nice and everything,
but very exhausting to use and it's missing some of the nice features
that Beagle has - like note types, etc.

Our xesam-adaptor does a pretty good job at handling Xesam and now that
property names will be somewhat consistent adding a simple-tweakable XML
file mapping our ontology to Xesam's should be quite easy.

And if you are missing the nice features from Xesam ontology, nothing is
stopping you to add their equivalents into our ontology.
