There's a new beta build available on our Web site: http://protege.stanford.edu/download/prerelease/full/ http://protege.stanford.edu/download/prerelease/basic/ Although little has changed visibly in this build, we've made quite a few major internal modifications. As a result, this build may not be quite as stable as typical Protege beta builds. If stability is a concern for you, please wait a while before upgrading. In any case, you should always backup your work before upgrading... Changes ------------- 1. The 2.0 beta version of the OWL Plugin is now included. 2. Protege now directly supports PostgreSQL as a database for use with the database back-end. No parameter definitions or other hacks are required to make the system work. Thanks go to Andrew Hastie for providing both the code and the prodding necessary to finally make this happen. Current PostgreSQL users may wish to regenerate their database projects. 3. Made URLWidget loading asynchronous. 4. The "add superclass" control on the Classes tab now respects the "allowed parents" facet on the "direct-superclasses" slot. Thanks go to Marc Dzaebel for contributing this fix. 5. There is now a mechanism to flush the multiuser server file-base projects to disk and shutdown the server. This mechanism is documented on our Wiki: http://protege.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ShuttingDownTheServer. 6. Reworked the "Include Projects" menu items and their implementations. 7. Fixed a bug occurring in slots which had both inverses and template values. 8. Fixed a bug that caused the final change in a text component to sometimes get lost before a save. 9. Removed a very old (Protege 1.X) version of the database back-end from the distribution. 10. Incorporated the OWL Plugin toolbar icons into the core toolbar. 11. Added some code to try to ensure that the Help menu remains the last menu on the menu bar. 12. Fixed a crashing bug in the UMLS Tab.
