[Gramene] Ontology version information

[Trish Whetzel]

Since BioPortal (http://bioportal.bioontology.org/) is now able to load an ontology file given a URL vs. the previous method of connecting into a CVS/SVN repository, we are changing how we extract the ontology version information. For OBO format ontologies, we will extract this information from the property "data-version" based on the property description here: http://www.geneontology.org/GO.format.obo-1_4.shtml. For OWL ontologies, we will extract the version information from owl:versioninfo. In your next ontology release, can you include the version information in the ontology file?

Thanks!
Trish
