Software roadmap

Phenotype annotation editor

[complete] Initial Phenote configuration for PhenoScape data model
[complete] Specimen List window allowing curators to repeatedly choose one or more taxa for EQ annotation
[complete] Phylogeny view for selecting taxa to annotate
[complete] Search field to filter table rows
[complete] Ontology mode in search field for more advanced table filtering
[complete] Transition PhenoScape components to Phenote 2 docking windows interface
[complete] Use standard menus and keyboard shortcuts for Open, Save, Quit, Cut, Copy, Paste, etc.
[complete] Improved document saving functionality. User should be able to quickly save a document to the same file it was opened from.
[complete] Rework Specimen List as Taxon List: each taxon has multiple specimens which can be picked from during annotation as supporting evidence
Choose museum code from pick list when entering specimen IDs
Character matrix view of annotations: Taxon by Entity+Attribute

Annotation using temporary terms, when an appropriate term is not available in an ontology. Ability to update these terms to official term once it is available.
Make DAG view work browsing entire ontology, with drag-and-drop to fields
Allow user to see what version of ontology is being used
Create lookup-enabled Publication field (enter DOI or PMID)

Determine whether to integrate standalone Phenote application with web database, or migrate components into web application

[complete] Curators are using OBO-Edit successfully and no PhenoScape development
