New WebProtege Version Available
June 9, 2013
The newest version of the open-sourced, web-based ontology editor WebProtégé is now available. For those unfamiliar, the tool’s description explains:
“WebProtégé is an open source, lightweight, web-based ontology editor. WebProtégé provides a friendly and highly configurable user interface that can be adapted for the use of domain experts. It has support for form-based editing and full-fledged collaboration.”
WebProtégé 1.0 will no longer be improved, so users are encouraged to migrate to the latest iteration, on Build 102 as of this writing. The release notes issue this important caution to those who have been using a local installation:
“We have renamed one of the portlets, which affects the default configurations of the projects. Please delete the default-ui-configuration-data from your WebProtege data directory, and then restart tomcat. WebProtege will copy the new default configurations back to that folder.”
Important detail, that. The administrator’s guide gives detailed instructions for installing, deploying, testing, updating, and troubleshooting. To migrate an ontology from WebProtégé 1.0 server to the new version, see the instructions here. Users might also check out the hour-long webcast, which demonstrates some features and explains how to establish an account, upload an ontology, share, edit, and download revisions.
