In the paper we suggest that use of the International Consortium of Human Phenotype Terminologies is a suitable alternative to HPO. We should add an example and documentation supporting this.

I would suggest that we either say that one can use one of a number of clinical terminologies (POSSUM, London, phenodb, ICHPT, HPO, SNOMED, etc) or that we recommend HPO. ICHPT is not really supported by anyone (i.e., it has exactly zero funding right now), and with the UMLS mapping there is less of a need for it now anyway. Also, if we want people to use the phenopacket for non genetic disease, then we should be realistic and allow SNOMED. We need to try to work with SNOMED to get allowed and fully open mappings! -Peter

Currently the format itself is unrestricted, any ontology class ID can go in the various slots (which is necessary and pxf can be used for yeast or zebrafish too).

We can provide recommendations, either informative or normative (the latter would be of the form "for human patients, the phenotype ID MUST be drawn from X, Y or Z).

We could also have a wider variety of examples, more examples definitely helpful.

We have one example with SNOMED (where SNOMED is used for the exposure - smoking)
