Nodalpoint Projects

I plan to try and get a few projects going through nodalpoint. Stay tuned.

RDF schemas or OWL ontologies for the description of biological resources, databases, web services, research projects etc. See the project page for more details.

Alf has put together a basic prototype of a modular portal for bioinformatics searches. He's looking for plugins and has put up a template for submissions. There's page of bioinformatics related SOAP and REST services here.

We plan to test all of the online services in the 2006 NAR Web Server issue. You can leave your comments here.
