Hi Lydia - could you elaborate about this item in your excellent
report!..... 

* Added "Type" entity type, plus skeletons for its
associated Content, ContentHandler, ViewAction, EditAction and
UndoAction

I'm particularly keen to know how this facility relates to
fielding application-level ontologies.
thanks - john
