@cmungall @matentzn @nataled @balhoff @jamesaoverton: On the 2023-04-25 call, @bpeters42 mentioned importing COB in order allow for assignment of domains and ranges. E.g., #712 mentions measurement data item in the definition.

This sounds reasonable to me, but what are your thoughts.

If we are going to import COB terms, we need to decide if the import will have COB IRI or the IRI of the equivalent 3rd party term (e.g., OBI:organism).
At present, we can't use COB to import 3rd party terms.

Whatever cob.owl says! If the terms are officially rewired during the COB release process, they should be used, i.e. https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ols4/ontologies/cob

At present, we can't use COB to import 3rd party terms.

Very interesting problem! This requires a COB issue "Who owns COB terms imported from 3rd parties?" and a bit of discussion.. In my opinion, something super weird should be done: The original IDs should be effectively ceded to COB (I am only 50,01% sure this is a good idea though, and 55% that its going to be very difficult). Very interesting point, thanks for raising it.
