Hi Lydia - could you elaborate about this item in your excellent report!.....
* Added "Type" entity type, plus skeletons for its associated Content, ContentHandler, ViewAction, EditAction and UndoAction
I'm particularly keen to know how this facility relates to fielding application-level ontologies. thanks - john
