Exciting update for scientific publishing task: I met with Amit Kapoor who heads the Topaz project under Plos. They are building a new publishing platform for PlosOne, http://www.plosone.org/, a new open access journal from Plos. Amit is interested in using ontology and semantic web technology to add new features to Topaz software, which is also open source.  We discussed the possibility of using SPE ontology and collaboration.  It looks very promising! Topas publishing platform has an architecture that can implement community-supported ontology like SPE for scientific publishing.  I think this is a very concrete use case.  I welcome any suggestion as how to pursue this use case so that we can really develop SPE ontology to something with practical use right away. 

www.web2express.org/demo/ demonstrates another use case. You may take a look at it if you haven't done so.  I'll appreciate any comment.
