[bioontology-support] OWL/RDF as download option for ontologies?

We are grateful, as usual!

ok., we'll keep you posted. It shouldn't be long.

not sure I understand the question completely. But there is also  
something like
http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/FMA
for every ontology in BioPortal. For now, it resolves to the "Ontology  
details" page in the BioPortal UI. We will be installing a new version  
of the PURL server shortly so that we will have http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/FMA.rdf 
  resolve to the rdf file and the link above to the html page.

Hope this helps!
