The History form can be used outside of EVN and is useful for
organizing collaborative changes.  You can look in the
evn.topbraidlive.org project to see how some of the scripts work with
the teamwork model working copy graphs, etc.  The EVN documentation
(link in home page of EVN on localhost) also has useful information
about creating teamwork change repositories and change workflow.

owl:import should work here?  You can either do this in Composer
(create a data aggregator model that import all of your data, and open
the aggregator model in Ensemble), or create a button in Ensemble that
imports the data. In EVN 3.5 there will be a link in the vocabulary's
home page where you can import models.

Yes, EVN is delivered as a finished application that hides config
buttons. To re-install them, open the Ensemble application file in
Composer (evn.topbraidlive.org/user-applications/EVN Editor.n3) and
choose Resource > InstallConfigButtons.  To re-finalize the
application, use RemoveConfigButtons.

EVN is configured for SKOS models out of the box, but you can
customize using Ensemble.  For example, you can customize the Concept
Hierarchy to show other properties (e.g. rdfs:subClassOf), add and
remove components, re-wire as needed, etc.
