Hi Alan and Melaine,
I think you could provide some clarity to the discussion below. 

I spontaneously think about MIREOT - Minimum information to reference an 
external ontology term
http://obi-ontology.org/page/MIREOT

And, I also wonder if Bernard Vatant's proposal for 5-stars of link 
vocabolaries is applicacable also for OBO foundry based ontolgies?

Kind regards
