Hi Tommy, looks like a good starting point for some discussion. Just to help me think through some of the issues, is there any chance you could add a usage example illustrating how this system would deal with a model made from the combination of a bunch of papers (i.e., a single model where each component defines a new citation). I'm guessing this would be done by adding each of the components as separate models and then importing them into a single model?
Another usage example that might be interesting to look at would be a model author adding a local CellML 1.1 model hierarchy to a remote repository and how all the import href's are handled in this case (i.e., imports throughout the model hierarchy might consist of a mix of relative, http, and file URLs). And another usage example might be the searching for models built using a specific set of data. It will hopefully become standard practice to annotate variable values with their source, where the source may be some data from a different article than the model's publication. Thanks, David.
