The GCI was initially envisaged as a community curation tool, similar to the VCI. Later it was decided to restrict the GCI to use by GCEPs only. An additional layer of complication was that the GCI was designed for multiple groups to make their own parallel classifications on each GDM, but now it is required that only one GCEP at a time should be working on a classification for a given GDM. As such, the GDMs need to be cleaned up so that each GDM only has one GCEP current owner.
