Hi Ed -
is your converter operating in a way that is congruent with (or even
utilizing) the mapping and the converter provided by the NCBO and
Berkeley Ontology projects?
http://www.bioontology.org/wiki/index.php/OboInOwl:Main_Page
If not, I'm not sure how beneficial it is for users to have multiple
and possibly conflicting mappings.
