Multispecies pathway? (1)

There have been no changes to this discussion for at least 30 days. If it is concluded, you may want to write a summary.

Have we though about mechanisms for multispecies pathways? Can we maybe set the species to "none" or "unknown" to at least signal something special is going on. (or will that make them unfindable?)

I would welcome moving the species information down to the <DataNode> level. It could be inherited by the organism set for the full pathway (as is now), but "overwritten" by this information on the node.

I have filed this in the issue tracker: http://developers.pathvisio.org/ticket/1758

I am not sure that is really needed. Not for this pathway in any case. This pathway is multi-species by nature but does not contain specific identifiers from any pathway. Also it actually is a meta-pathway that would link to species specific pathways were we to extend that. While I can think of processes where different organisms are involved these would most often consist of such species specific subpathways. What you proposed sounds like a lot of work for me for a problem that nobody might really have. Or do you have some examples in mind. If we are going into detailing identifiers I would in any case much rather solve that through a state kind of solution that would not only allow to change the species but also things like location, phosphorylation, activation level in general, histone acetylation, CpG island methylation and such.
