I just checked out the latest version from trunk, and make a few discoveries.
Importing actors into the local repository using "Save in Library" creates kar files in the "workflows" directory. I had previously created my own workflows directory in the same place, and was surprised to find kepler was using the same one. When I went to remove the directory, I found that I wasn't the only one putting stuff in there. I am not sure this is the best setup, I would really expect these kar files to be in the .kepler directory. I also found that when I saved an actor to the library, it didn't immediately show up in the component tree. It would show up when i restarted kepler. I also have had difficulty importing a third party ontology into kepler. In addition to the need to name the ontology, I found my ontology wouldn't show up unless I changed some of the doctype strings and RDF namespaces to have the LSID, instead of a normal URI like http://localhost:8080/myfile.owl. That stuff is a little of a mystery to me, but I did get it working by twiddling these values.
