Todd,

I really apologize for such a late answer, but I wanted to enter 
examples of suggested format and referencing style first.  I got 
involved in two project proposals and one ongoing project in February 
and unexpectedly had much less time than I anticipated. So I apologize 
once again.

I entered terms from BFO book into term list. Not all of them, so I ask 
everyone to suggest whether some terms from BFO glossary should be 
entered or some deleted. We have 78 terms now. I still didn't enter 
definitions, except several examples, so that we can agree on format first.

Please check definitions for Basic Formal Ontology - BFO, Category, 
Class, Defined Class and Continuant for examples of suggested references 
format and style.  I used style mostly similar to APA. So we can discuss 
which style we will use here and for the textbook. I used your 
suggestion for comments.

We can also discuss the term list. It now has some sub-terms indented 
and then listed alphabetically. If we want to maintain the same 
alphabetical order from main terms, sub-terms can be written as, for 
example, "Ontology, Domain" instead "Domain Ontology". Also, maybe some 
sub-terms shouldn't have separate pages, for example sub-terms of 
Spatial Region.

In Books page there are various referencing styles so we should sort 
that out after we agree which one we will use.

Best regards,

Sandra
