Re: [regrep-semantic] Groups - New Action Item #0002 Issue: Classes are not the only type of ontology element

["Carl Mattocks" <carlmattocks@checkmi.com>]

I agree that 'ontology' Classes, Properties, or Individuals should be
treated equally . I also think we need to consider how this would be done
for external ontologies. As in, ontologies that are located outside of the
Repository and/or outside the Registry.
