Core Protege
--------------------
- Fixed a problem that caused a warning dialog to appear each time 
Protege started.

- Fixed a bug that caused newly created and renamed instances in OWL 
ontologies to be displayed with the original name (only present in 
client-server mode).

- Added the serialVersionUID to all serializable classes in 
protege-core, owl, and a number of plug-ins (standard-extensions, 
protege-pellet-reasoner, rdf-backend, change-management, 
change-analysis, protege-collab, chat, prompt, lucene-query, 
bioportal-reference-plug). This will improve compatibility between 
different versions of Protege servers and clients.

BioPortal Reference Plug-in
---------------------------------------
- Updated the BioPortal Reference Plug-in to work with the latest 
release of NCBO BioPortal [1], which now requires a mandatory argument 
be appended to all REST calls (read more [2]).

BioPortal Import Plug-in
---------------------------------
- The BioPortal Import Plug-in is now bundled with the default Protege 
installation. It is integrated into the OWL Classes tab as an extra 
button that allows importation of classes or class sub-tress from 
ontologies stored in NCBO BioPortal. The plug-in is highly configurable, 
and supports importation of class properties, e.g., labels, synonyms, 
definitions, and metadata, e.g., import author, timestamp, source 
ontology, etc. (read more [3]). New versions will be downloadable from 
the plug-in's wiki page.

BioPortal Java API
---------------------------
- The BioPortal Java API used by both the BioPortal Reference and Import 
plug-ins was modified to be less sensitive to NCBO BioPortal service 
changes. The API is documented [4] on the Protege wiki.


A web-based version of the release notes is available on the Protege 
wiki [5].
