I would like to revise this request. It has been suggested that a better name for this module would be
WebService::UMLSKS::Similarity Since the web services we use from the National Library of Medicine are known as UMLSKS. This would also avoid confusion with UMLS::SImilarity (ie this module is not a WebServices version of UMLS::Similarity, but rather a WebService using the UMLSKS). It's not clear to me how I can change this request. Do I create a new one and somehow cancel the one below, or ?
