Fix OBO format structure error #283

Closed jamesaoverton closed 2 months ago

jamesaoverton commented 2 months ago

ROBOT can't convert COB artifacts to OBO format because of an OBO structure error:

$ robot convert -i cob-edit.owl -o cob-edit.obo
OBO STRUCTURE ERROR Ontology does not conform to OBO structure rules:
multiple comment tags not allowed. ...

We're using rdfs:comment annotations for notes to ourselves (the COB editors), and sometimes more than one rdfs:comment per term, but OBO format only allows one comment per term.

@cmungall suggested using IAO:0000116 'editor note' instead. I'll make a PR that does so.
